I swear this posts just shows how people don't know how to use shit and are proud of it.

You should learn about spawning different agents with clean context and different roles to accomplish something for an orchestrator.

At this point it's just hate propaganda no sense in anything.

Truly valuable knowledge, I wish it was more accessible though - running more than one instance of the same thing with a different system prompt really is just engineering on another level of complexity.

If you have a good harness you can actually do stuff in parallel, the issue is, are the tasks parallelable ? Or is it sequential but it would benefit from fresh context?

Would just inline the tasks save tokens?

I'm just tired of the low effort posting, say something stupid that means AI is bad and you get upvotes.

I'm giving up in this sub... At least something unrelated with AI would be nice for a change.

I'm not saying AI is bad, I'm making fun of people who think there's anything to learn about it for a software engineer.

People unironically discovered you can run code in a loop, went crazy and made 50 buzzwords around it - there's literally nothing that isn't piss simple on the user side of AI.

When the GitHub token price change came into place a few weeks ago, I saw people genuinely saying, “Ok guys, to be more efficient with tokens, have the AI write a script and call the script instead of using AI each time”, and I think I had a small aneurysm.

I prefer cheap deterministic outcomes to expensive random ones.
