1 小时 23 分钟Foreign welcome to Changelog and Friends, a weekly talk show about Goonies deep cuts.
Thanks as always to our partners at Fly, the public cloud built for developers who ship with push button deployments scaling to thousands of instances.
Learn all about it@Fly IO.
Okay, let's talk.
Well friends, before the show, I am here with a new friend of mine, Scott Dietzen, CEO of Augment Code.
I'm excited about this.
Augment taps into your team's collective knowledge, your code base, your documentation, your dependencies.
It is the most context aware developer AI.
So you won't just code faster, you also build smarter.
It's an ask me anything for your code.
It's your deep thinking buddy.
It's your stan flow antidote.
Okay Scott, so for the foreseeable future, AI assisted is here to stay.
It's just a matter of getting the AI to be a better assistant.
And in particular I want help on the thinking part, not necessarily the coding part.
Can you speak to the thinking problem versus the coding problem and the potential false dichotomy there?
A couple of different points to make.
You know, AIs have gotten good at making incremental changes, at least when they understand customer software.
So first, and the biggest limitation that these AIs have today, they really don't understand anything about your code base.
If you take GitHub Copilot for example, it's like a fresh college graduate understands some programming languages and algorithms, but doesn't understand what you're trying to do.
