What people are saying
“We trialed agentic workflows at work and we were not impressed by the quality of code produced. If you look online, people will have you think that nobody writes code by hand anymore. It's nonsense.”
“If not clown car. Why Circus shaped?”
“I watched a pro AI podcast for balance but it was sadly as signposted - all future tense - big statements, little support - problems will be solved because AI clever - number go up, AI goes in bag”
“Steve and Ed - the POWER COUPLE of 2026 ❤”
