I feel like an outlier in all of this. But isn't this just more AI slop? How is this different from text generation or image generation?

Like many people I have used AI to generate crap I really don't care about. I need an image. Generate something like, whatever. Great hey a good looking image! No that's done I can do something I find more interesting to do.

But it's slop. The image does not fit the context. Its just off. And you can tell that no one really cared.

This isn't good.

The difference is that coding agents can run the code that they produce, fix any bugs, build tests and generally demonstrate that it works.

You can't do that for images and text.
