I agree that assisted engineering means that software development goes from artisanal work modes to industrialized modes of work. Automotive engineers don't go to the factory and build the cars after they've designed them, but software engineers have been doing so. However, I have to say that the post doesn't really explain how you are industrialising code, and I don't really know what differentiates your product.
My view is that software engineering is splitting into two paths. One is deep craftsmanship. The other is guided operators who know how to steer tools, systems, and LLMs toward the right result.
I am keen to hear where others agree or disagree, and how you see this playing out in real teams.
