I'll be providing 15 minutes of what I've experienced with augmented coding. tl;dr great news for explorers, not so much yet for expanders & extractors.

Excerpt from O'Reilly Radar piece Third, train yourself to use AI effectively. OโReilly author Andrew Stellman recommends several exercises for learning to use AI effectively.1 Here are two: Take a program youโve written, paste it into your favorite AI chat, and ask the AI to generate comments. Then look at the comments: Are they correct? Where is the AI wrong? Where did it misconstrue the intent? Stellmanโs point is that you wrote the code; you understand it. Youโre not second-guessing the AI. Youโre learning that it can make mistakes and seeing the kinds of mistakes that it can make. A good next step is asking an AI assistant to generate unit tests, either for existing code or some new code (which leads to test-driven development). Unit tests are a useful exercise because testing logic is usually simple; itโs easy to see if the generated code is incorrect. And describing the testโdescribing the function that youโre testing, its arguments, the return type, and the expected resultsโforces you to think carefully about what youโre designing.
Just got quoted in a great @oreilly.bsky.social Radar article about AI & learning. ๐
It's weird and counterintuitive, but accepting that AI makes a ton of mistakes is the first step in using it effectively.
@davefarley77.bsky.social gave a keynote first that overlapped substantially with mine, so I had 24 hours to come up with something new. There are spots where this preso is rough but I really enjoyed what I dug up from deeper in the mine. Also, @gotocon.com runs a great conference.
