2. Traditional metrics of engineering hours/days don’t work for AI. Two metrics I use to evaluate the complexity of a project: - how many instructions I need to give AI until it completes a project - how often I have to interrupt it because it goes into the wrong direction Across my projects, the interruption rate is about 1 in 4 instructions. This means I still need to actively monitor the agent, rather than letting it operate autonomously.
