Coding with LLMs (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex) is often presented as the ‘killer app’ for Generative AI. But looking at data, it seems the one piece of the puzzle missing is actual cost. …
I was using a set of template files designed for LLMs to review that project. It is absolutely the fault of Claude that it tools me to do something one way, then told me to try another and when I reverted it said it was the optimal approach.
Where I find it helps is in getting initial starts and as a start to code review. But in both cases they aren’t ever operating on their own and their feedback is filtered through myself or another senior dev.
