The dude is selling an IDE.

Also it's missing the point of a software factory concept

A software factory will not work infinitely forever for everything. A software factory isn't a solve anything button (aka god).

In a conventional factory, things break and fail. Process machines get poluted. Extruders get jammed.

You still need to establish intent, define what you care about, define guardrails, and of course manage the factory.

and build it incrementally!

You don't have to build the entire software factory at once. You don't have to mastermind the whole future system, instead you're actually stacking and layering these small, isolated problems.

I think that's a really good approach to start getting value tomorrow or this week without saying, "I'm going to revolutionize how we ship."

It's just:

1. Find places where you can use agents.

2. Figure out where the right leverage points are for humans and where the right leverage points are for agents.

3. Just start building those things and plugging them into each other.

One day you'll wake up, and 80% of all of your stuff is automated.
