<p>Yes this is pretty common in large enterprise-ey tech companies that are successful. There are usually a small group of vocal members that have a strong conviction and drive to make a vision a reality. This is contrary to popular belief that large companies design by committee.<p>Of course it works exceptionally well when the instinct turns out to  be right. But can end companies if it isn’t.</p>

<p>As someone paying some vague attention to market movements, this was predictable.<p>News of a deal and hype was largely responsible for the rise. Now that the sentiment is cooling off, it’s dropping back to a more reasonable level.</p>

<p>There is no free lunch. The amount of prompt writing to give the LLM enough context about your codebase etc is comparable to writing the tests yourself.<p>Code assistance tools might speed up your workflow by maybe 50% or even 100%, but it's not the geometric scaling that is commonly touted as the benefits of autonomous agentic AI.<p>And this is not a model capability issue that goes away with newer generations. But it's a human input problem.</p>

<p>This is an interesting approach.<p>My team has been prototyping something very similar with encoding business operations policies with LEAN. We have some internal knowledge bases (google docs / wiki pages) that we first convert to LEAN using LLMs.<p>Then we run the solver to verify consistency.<p>When a wiki page is changed, the process is run again and it's essentially a linter for process.<p>Can't say it moved beyond the prototyping stage though, since the LEAN conversion does require some engineers to look through it at least.<p>But a promising approach indeed, especially when you have a domain that requires tight legal / financial compliance.</p>
