Yes, I have experienced it, too. I was building a web crawler using Replit as an agent. I could have done that in 2 hours without LLM help but I wanted to see how the LLM would do it. I gave it a set of of instructions but the LLM could not execute on it. It later choose an alternative path but that also did not yield. I then gave an exact list of steps. Results were slightly better but not what I was expecting. Overall, it's good to get something going but you still have to hold hands. It is not the best but also not the worst experience.
"We should strive for execution where at least your comrades also win." --> this won my heart!
It is not a zero-sum game. You win when your comrades win. The glory is not in taking it all but taking pride in what you have created and can potentially create and expand on over and over again. :)
I like reading posts like this one. May be they serve as a form of therapy for me that I’m not in this alone. There are others in a similar boat, fighting the good fight, making similar mistakes, and having the same realizations.
Very well; now, I can go back to work with my head up high. :)
