What Are AI Coding Agents?
AI coding agents are tools that help developers write, understand, and improve code through conversation.
Why Human Understanding Matters
AI coding tools are powerful assistants, but human judgment remains essential for building software that actually works.
AI and Human Collaboration
The best results come when humans and AI work together, each contributing their unique strengths.
How Agents Understand Code
AI agents recognize patterns in code structure and context rather than truly understanding like humans do.
Context and Tokens
AI agents process text as tokens and can only consider a limited amount of information at once.
The Future of Coding
AI is changing how we build software, but human creativity and understanding remain at the center.
Strengths of AI Assistance
AI coding agents excel at speed, pattern recognition, and handling repetitive tasks that slow humans down.
Limitations of AI Assistance
AI agents can be confidently wrong, lack true understanding, and require human judgment to use safely.
