Coding agents can generate 500 lines of working, albeit simple, code in minutes.
Agents excel at tasks like creating web apps, processing files, or automating workflows.
They may not handle complex tasks like optimizing JIT compilers but are great for simpler coding needs.
The usefulness of agents lies in their ability to quickly produce functional code, not in matching human expertise.
Historically, software development focused on reducing the need to write code; agents continue this trend.
Agents provide 'glue' code—simple, functional, and quick to produce—opening new possibilities for development.
