A little idea I got from playing with AI SWE Agents. Can AI help make sure we understand the code that our AIs write?

PR Quiz uses AI to generate a quiz from a pull request and blocks you from merging until the quiz is passed. You can configure various options like the LLM model to use, max number of attempts to pass the quiz or min diff size to generate a quiz for.

Reflections about utilitarian and experiential content and why understanding both matters. https://webdesignernews.com/content-for-fun-vs-content-for-purpose-designing-for-two-distinct-modes-of-consumption/

For years, it’s been faster to create mockups and prototypes of software than to ship it to production. As a result, software design teams could stay “ahead” of engineering. Now AI coding agents make development 10x faster, flipping the traditional software development process on its head. https://webdesignernews.com/ai-has-flipped-software-development/

Of all the current debates around AI, one critique has stayed with me: that it’s “flattening the bar.” Tools like ChatGPT, the argument goes, make everyone’s writing sound the same — generic, overly polished, stripped of nuance.
