> If I have any doubt that someone might not complete a task, or at least accurately explain why it's proving difficult, with at least 95% certainty, I won't assign them the task
It gets hard to compare AI to humans. You can ask the AI to do things you would never ask a human to do, like retry 1000 times until it works, or assign 20 agents to the same problem with slightly different prompts. Or re-do the entire thing with different aesthetics.
No doubt, I'm just saying that working with a coding agent is not even remotely similar to being a team lead. If a member of your team can't complete a task and can't accurately explain what the difficulty is, you're in trouble.
