The Devin mishap is a reminder of how tricky it often is for the general public to gauge what’s currently possible and what isn’t for AI. A lot of people, including myself, assumed the claimed performance was legitimate. No doubt many AI startups like Devin are waiting for the rising tide of improving foundational models to make their ideas feasible. I wonder how many are engaging in similar deceptive marketing tactics or will do so in the future.
