I couldn't even get the video to play. Nonetheless I'm sort of meta excited by this product. It reminds me of the apocryphal "customers want a faster horse" thing associated with Henry Ford. Chat bolted onto an IDE was a great starting point, but if AI is writing the code, do even need an IDE? This doesn't go that far but it sounds wacky enough that it least it's trying to break out of the IDE mold. Not idea what we need instead of an IDE but if an IDE with chat is a faster horse then I'm really curious what the car looks like. Is it just reviewing UI? Even that seems like a short term solution since I'm not sure how long code reviewing will be around as agents get better at it and it might make more sense to do fractional launches and gather data than spend precious human time looking for a bug/needle in a diff / haystack... |

I definitely relate to a lot of your thinking here, I feel like it will just take a handful of years of experimenting with these new tools to settle on what really works. That was part of my rationale for making it more modular, as I continue to learn and grow with the tooling I can easily update my IDE to be super personalized.
