OpenAI CFO Sarah — Race of A New AI Agent : Agentic Software Engineer
🗞️ BREAKING NEWS : ▪️ OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar recently revealed that the company is set to launch its third AI agent. ▪️ The new agent is called “A-SWE”, short for Agentic Software Engineer. A-SWE will be capable of performing tasks typically handled by human software engineers. ▪️ In addition to coding, it will also manage tasks such as quality assurance, bug testing, and bug bashing. ▪️ This marks a significant advancement in AI’s ability to contribute across the full software development lifecycle. — — — — - ➡️ I am curious to learn how these AI agents will actually help with bug test case preparation, identifying corner cases, handling out-of-bound scenarios, and even fixing bugs. ➡️ Bug fixing is rarely straightforward — it often requires understanding which module is causing the issue and where exactly the fix needs to be applied. I am especially interested in how AI can perform root cause analysis, since that typically involves deep investigation across multiple layers of code and logic. 🖊️ ✴️ IMO, AI agents can help with debugging by creating tests, finding edge cases, suggesting fixes, and tracking down problems. 😊 However, the final decision still needs a human engineer’s logic, intuition, and expertise. 😊 — — — — PS : Stop Video at 11:28 and listen.
