Five for Friday – June 21, 2024
Posting a little later this week – which is weird, because it’s been a week where I’ve collected sufficiently more than five links I want to share…but sometimes things just get busy. Let’s get to sharing.
- Oh look – there’s another company claiming to do cool stuff with AI…except in this case, they actually are. This week, Autify announced their AI helper – Zenes. Take four minutes and then check out this video where they import a requirements document, then auto generate some gherkin (which can be edited) and then turn that gherkin into a set of playwright tests.
- As much as I like what Autify are doing (a simple and helpful improvement), there’s a lot of garbage out there wearing AI stickers. I’ve been waiting for someone to write this article for nearly a year.
- Along the same no-magic lines is this article on Generative AI Is Not Going To Build Your Engineering Team For You
- A head-nodder from David Campbell on Why Takehome Interviews Suck.
- And finally – this article on cognitive load is a gem and a great read.
That’s it – I’m off to enjoy the Seattle heat.
