Anthropic’s Boris Cherny points out that programming is moving toward higher levels of abstraction.
A year ago, a developer’s workflow was to write code in an IDE and then prompt multiple Claude instances in parallel. Now, the workflow has evolved into writing loops that call Claude, allowing it to autonomously decide on the next steps.
