Totally agree about the chat interface. I like to say it’s “infinitely powerful and infinitely confusing.” A dangerous combination. And, arguing with myself, I think it’s fair to say the code is AN object of our attention, if not THE object. A common metaphor being applied to agentic coding is the invention of power tools. If AI is the drill, and the goal is a house, then the code is the framing.

> A tool is not meant to be the object of our attention; rather the tool should reveal the true object of our attention (the thing the tool acts upon), rather than obscuring it

I think this is true of AI agents. What is the object of our engineering attention? Applications, features, defect resolution. Not code.

They have a monolith but struggle with individual subsystem failures bringing down the whole thing. Sounds like they would benefit from Elixir’s isolated, fail-fast architecture.

It's not possible to get the autocomplete unless the function/method you're calling takes a union. Many libraries can't do that because they need to be flexible in what they receive. So yeah, you can define a union, but editors don't have the context to know your union applies to the call.

In some cases you can use it to define string arguments to an external library. Maybe table names to an ORM or a well-known file path. This helps because you get autocomplete from typing `MyEnum.` and seeing options, even though the external function takes a plain string.
