Gold-Medalist Coders Build an AI That Can Do Their Job for Them

  Silas Alberti, a computer scientist and co-founder of another
  stealth AI startup (of course), has tried Devin and says the
  technology is a leap forward. It’s less like an assistant helping
  with code and more like a real worker doing its own thing, he
  says. “This feels very different because it’s an autonomous system
  that can do something for you,” Alberti says. Devin excels at
  prototyping projects, fixing bugs and displaying complex data in
  graphical forms, according to Alberti. “Most of the other assistants
  derail after four or five steps, but this maintains its state almost
  effortlessly through the whole job,” he says.
