I was browsing HN comments a while ago and ran into a wonderful blog on the levels of AI involvement in programming. It started at 0 I think, with no AI involved and went to around 7 where LLMs direct other LLMs and no human is involved.

I wanted to reference these levels in the README of an open source project I'm creating as part of it was hand-programmed while using AI as a kind of search engine, while another part was crafted by AI with me reviewing code and providing a spec.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
