Must be a token burner setup. Nice if you really got it to work. Now also add business agents that come up with new features based on actual research. Your automated humanless company is almost there.

They're making money, which is more than most ICs living in cost centers can say.

The human code monkey sometimes thinks too highly of the task of coding. That's never once been the job to be done.

Every engineer is going to become a master of understanding and measuring need, opportunity cost, organizational support and headwinds, political will, etc. These are the true features of the job. The coding part will fall away entirely.

Deliver value. Code used to be the expensive part, but now it's becoming cheap, fungible, and ephemeral.
