I know it’s tiring to talk about “hallucination”, but truly, models still do hallucinate
They constantly say they did a thing they didn’t, say they know how to solve something when they don’t, etc. Regardless of guard rails or tests - AI forces a constant vigilance of a new kind.
Not just “what might have gone wrong” but also “what do I think is working but isn’t actually”.
And we’re not even talking about how it chooses substandard solutions, is happy to muddy code/architectures, add spaghetti on top of spaghetti etc.
Agentic coding often feels like an army of unexperienced developers who are also incredibly eager to please.
"Still" means "it always had hallucinations, and it still does, despite people thinking that it doesn't anymore". People think we've moved past that. We haven't.
