Question 15open

How far can the human be removed from the loop, and what does that look like?

Explore how the human role can move from supervising execution toward product judgment, direction, and creative choice.

Starting point

I want to propose features—or have agents propose them—and hand those ideas to a process that decides whether they are worth building, where they belong, and how they should be implemented.

The evaluation step matters. Accepting every plausible feature produces the Homer: a product assembled from individually appealing ideas without a coherent whole.

What to track

  • Which judgments require human taste, context, or accountability.
  • Whether the factory can return implementations that are ready for human testing.
  • How the pace, economics, and range of software creation change.
  • The shape of a creative process that combines AI and human input.

Living record

Experiments in delegation, product judgment, and human review belong here.
