I work for a $20 billion tech company (not a big tech company, but not a small one either). Our company strongly encourages us to incorporate agentic tools like Claude Code and Codex into our daily routines. Management has made it easy to use Anthropic and OpenAI products with an enterprise subscription. I can sense that our business leaders want us to move more swiftly and be more productive to avoid falling behind in the AI race.

My team has adopted Claude Code extensively, and the number of daily and weekly PRs we have closed has increased significantly. I’ve noticed that we’re also more willing to commit to more projects. My team benefits from most of our code being written in TypeScript. However, some other teams with legacy code bases seem to have a bit of a harder time using these tools compared to us.

One thing that surprises me with a AI is you can have people working on the same code base. Some can be very effective with AI, yet there are others working on the exact same code base who cannot get good results. Some people don’t really seem to be taking the time to get good at writing prompts and plans before having agents execute on them.

Your experiences reflect mine.

My employer has a slack channel where we can share prompts, tips about how to use AI outside of coding, Q&A. I've learned a lot from my coworkers there.

This feels so dystopian and cruel how our own machines are superseding us. Time to somehow supersede these machines!!
