this sounds less like there’s something fundamentally wrong with devin, and more some tweaks that need to happen on sales enablement
Ian Sefferman (@iseff): So I know Cognition doesn’t care about Little Ole’ Me, and this is just my story, so take it with a grain of salt, but here’s why I don’t think all these crazy scaling revenue numbers by coding agents are going to stick:
We’ve been happy Devin users for a while. Really like the
