Id be keen to read/hear more about the experiment you've been undertaking as I too have been thinking the impact on the design/architecture/organising of software.

The focus mainly seems to be on enhancing existing workflows to produce code we currently expect - often you hear its like a junior dev.

The type of rethinking you outlined could have code organised in such a way a junior dev would never be able to extend but our 'junior dev' LLM can iterate through changes easily.

I care more about the properties of software e.g. testable, extendable, secure than how it organised.

Gets me to think of questions like

- what is the correlation between how code is organised vs its properties? - what is the optimal organisation of code to facilitate llms to modify and extend software?

Its not even a POC at this point, just a readme and a sandbox for testing it while I work on it. But you might find the readme interesting:

I'm especially pleased with how explicit it makes the inner dependency graph. Today I'm tinkering with pact (https://docs.pact.io/). I like that I'm forced to add the pact contracts generated during consumer testing as flake outputs (so they can then be inputs to whichever flake does provider testing). It's potentially a bit more work than it would be under other schemes, but it also makes the directionality of the dependency into a first class citizen and not an implementation detail. Otherwise it would be easy to forget which batch of tests depends on artifacts generated by the other.

I suppose there's things like Bazel for that sort of thing also but I don't think you can drop an agent into a bazel... thingy... and expect it to feel at home.

I recently discovered Tauri. What was the development experience like? Is the project open source? I'd like to take a look :D

It was frictionless to get everything up and running.

Communication between the frontend and backend is via an `invoke` method, easy as pie :).

It's not open source, but once I get the Apple developer stuff all done, I'll add an auto-update feature and open source it.

There we go, all set up!

I'm intrigued by the various reasons why you think there are not any large scale SAAS operating this in production?

I was referring to attributes of the ComfyUI software/project, not the idea of serving an image generation API to be clear. There are several of those providers.

i dont believe there is a viable use case for large scale AI-generated images as there is for text... except for porn, but many orgs with SAAS capabilities wouldn't touch that

This is my algorithm for wetware llms.
