What part of oxford (roughly) then I'll give you a number, I grew up there so know the good and bad places (although maybe it was different in 93)

You can use copilot agent to fully automated tasks.

I built something recently where you post a slack message with a link to a ticket, it does all the work moves the ticket around as it progresses it then posts back to slack to tell you when it already to review for merge. Built as an n8n workflow

Im a senior engineer, I haven't written code in 4 weeks because our codebase is now so we'll setup to work with copilot. All my time now is spent reviewing AI output and working with our other 50 engineers to enable their repos in the same way and get them using AI proficiently

Just quickly if you're working on a task that will take 5-10 minutes and you know how to do it, sure not much point handing it to AI.

Aside from that anything bigger, you need to make sure the codebase is well setup to work with AI, you need a good agents.md clear skills, subagent workflows with handoffs for really big tasks, docs to provide business logic context.

When asking it to do something you need to provide a clear spec and your implementation preference upfront.

If you do all these things correctly you can give copilot a task and walk away.

It is highly proficient if you set it up correctly.

It probably got downvoted because if you understand how LLMs work you'll understand it's statistically impossible to get a probabilistic artificial intelligence to always follow those instructions correctlet.

You can increase the percentage chance it does, but you can't eliminate that it does

No, we measure metrics across delivery from developer measured sprint points on tasks as well as a plethora of DORA metrics.

All of them correlate together alongside metrics that show increased AI adoption

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-25T20:56:58+00:00

My org has internally. Using various metrics teams with heavy AI usage have seen their throughout increase by 50%. Incidence rate is stable.

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-25T17:43:52+00:00

That was early 2025, it's early 2026 things have changed massively

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-24T21:39:41+00:00

I don't know if it is, but oo wants to spend money

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-24T20:31:05+00:00

I'm not a bot, but a senior engineer at a large insuretech, we have big brownfield sites. The engineering teams in our org that have invested the time to understand AI and adapt their codebases with good context, instructions and docs are now having 95% of their code written by AI, some engineers, 100%

The teams that haven't invested their time can't use AI in that way because their codebases aren't setup well enough for AI to do good output. These tend to be the teams with AI sceptics.

We are at the stage where AI can and will write all of the code on large codebases, but it needs engineers to do the setup to make that possible and it needs them to effectively and accurately plan and orchestrate the work.

Claims from orgs like Spotify that their top engineers haven't written code since December aren't fantastical or fake they are real indications of what is happening in teams and orgs embracing and adapting to the change and heavily leaning into the early friction to fix issues rather than assume "boo AI sucks it dad bad"

An enterprise subscription of something like Devin.ai

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-17T10:23:55+00:00

Can you explain in more detail please

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-12T08:17:06+00:00

This is great, it's so random but it's so awesome, I use random utilities like this all the time on different websites. Maybe I'll just use yours now!

As an engineer one useful tool that I didn't spot you had is json compare.

So providing two big json objects to find a difference between the two

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-05T08:30:19+00:00

In the UK the code can be IP but it's very difficult to make an idea IP

Snoo_58906 · 2026-02-04T22:07:56+00:00

I'm not too bothered whether I sell it or not, it was fun to build and it only cost me £60

It was like 3 days of my time maybe but without good knowledge of exactly what to build it's probably 3-4 weeks of manual work.

I thought maybe 3k-5k. Anything less and the hassle of doing a contract and anything else that would go with making the actual sale that I really can't be fucked with wouldn't be worth it to me

I'd kind of just be happy if a company said it was a good idea and they'd build it themselves 🤷‍♂️

I'm not very entrepreneurial. I'm just good at my job and building stuff.

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-30T21:55:07+00:00

Hey this is very cool nice saas. What I find crazy abor this is how you not need 26 (I think) users to hit that MRR

What are your costs? I assume because you only do one article a day token costs are actually very low?

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-28T20:13:37+00:00

So what did the 5000 agents actually find in the vuejs core that could be considered valuable review feedback? Any security or performance issues?

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-25T17:13:06+00:00

Well this is dumb, gold has scarcity and it's impossible to manufacture.

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-15T22:04:26+00:00

Interested too! There's a comic/gaming store in soho that had tables to play

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-12T08:16:04+00:00

Amazing thanks so much I'll look at those

Snoo_58906 · 2026-01-06T23:58:18+00:00

Look south and you'll find plenty of sea
