How @KentBeck thinks about AI coding tools and agents: "They're like a genie. They grant your wishes... but not quite how you expect it. Then you tell it that it's not what you wanted. 'Oh, I'm sorry...' The genie is good at apologizing. But it's not good at meaning it."

"The genie is amazing at the exploration phase... BUT you do NOT want the 'genie' in the expansion (extending software) or extraction (when you have stuff working, and working good) phase"

As closing by Kent: "This is the rebirth of programming. I hope you have so much fun getting back to the projects you've given up on... the Genie makes it so addicting!"
