Demystifying the AI Agent | Inspired IT
AI agents sound complex, but they're surprisingly simple. A system prompt, a few tools, and a model doing the real work. Here's what's actually under the hood.

I think all these AI agents should make micro-managers happy. Finally a justified need to provide detailed instructions and check every tiny detail of the outcome.

Which is good, maybe they'll get busy there and leave us alone ;-)

I have a technique I call incompetence-based-mutation-testing.

Start making some changes. Bork everything, comment out half the existing code to just make stuff compile. Run tests. Watch tests pass.

Stop refactoring, go have a stern word with the tests.
