> On paper, coding agents should be able to address my complaints with LLM-generated code reliability since it inherently double-checks itself and it’s able to incorporate the context of an entire code project. However, I have also heard the horror stories of people spending hundreds of dollars by accident and not get anything that solves their coding problems. There’s a fine line between experimenting with code generation and gambling with code generation.
