I'm intrigued to see that Google has quantified that new code is generally buggier and less secure than code that has existed in your codebase for longer: https://security.googleblog.com/2024/09/eliminating-memory-safety-vulnerabilities-Android.html

I've had a new Linux laptop for several weeks and only just realised that I didn't have `man` installed! Google is my default the vast majority of the time, and this seems to confirm it.

The word "agent" is so overloaded in the AI space. Sometimes it means a sophisticated interaction system, but other times it just means API. I think it's partly a sign of how new the space is. We don't have consensus on the best way to use these systems yet.
