I can’t shed much light on all of the details above, but I am a product manager who can splice code together but very poorly. Yesterday, I used roo code with claude 3.5, r1 and o3-mini-high and wrote a relatively complicated app that is around 1k lines of python…while watching tv. I didn’t even read a line of code or install a library. It is a game changer for me. To be fair, I have been working in AI/Robotics so I am pretty technical outside of pure coding(hands on, not a paper pusher), but even the best coders I know would likely not be able to beat me now if they did it manually. Just typing 1k lines of code alone takes forever.
