    Are we talking about the same thing? Debugging is trivially easy thanks to LLMs. I have a script that automates it. Just ctrl+a ctrl+c ctrl+v basically

      I don’t even know what workflow you’d be describing by copying everything into something else. Certainly doesn’t seem like any debugging effort I have done…

      I guess you might be copying your voice into a chat and asking it to identify inconsistencies in your code, but I would think you’d be using an ide that integrates that. In such a case I don’t feel like an AI doing a code review is “debugging”. It can catch some things in a code review capacity, but generally the stuff that rises to the level of “debug” I haven’t seen LLMs be useful in that context…

      Clearly not, because debugging isn’t a practice that you can just automate away. Telling Claude to “fix all the bugs” before every commit isn’t going to do shit, especially if you’re prompting it to debug code that it wrote itself.
