"When agents write code, the number of changes goes up, fast. In Anthropic's monorepo, changes landing per day went from about 2,500 in May to more than 30,000 in September this year."
changes == bugs ?
Aren't they (CTO, Engineering Lead) questioning why that volume (increase) of changes is required? Is Claude Code (or its use) just eating itself?
I'm always puzzled by the claim 90% of code at Anthropic is done by Claude Code. My own attempts to coax it into coding anything stable just ends up with loads of small bugs (I don't count docs as code). They're setting this expectation, amplified by AI evangelists, but the reality is far away for most.
Does any have examples of AI created apps or web apps that are a success? Genuinely want to use/follow them to see if we're past the hype stage, and it's just me that's getting it wrong.
