Hey folks, I've identified 3 different stages of AI coding adoption: autocomplete, prompting, loop engineering.
The autocomplete stage is basically a throwback to 2024 and is mostly harmless - the traditional SAST and code review practices handle it.
Prompting agents to build whole features, which is where most people are today, comes with some security and maintainability concerns, but there are already solutions in place.
The problem is that most teams are also starting to explore loop engineering with autonomous agents. This currently has no guardrails in place, which is a recipe for disaster, as the video explains.
If you're exploring loop engineering, this is for you.
