My next exploration will be "Coding Agents: fail slow, silent, and deceivingly".
After one month working on using Claude to create trading strategies, the one thing I learned; if the strategy looks like it can profit, it is a lie. The trading strategy agent doesn't find trading strategies that work, it is really a bug hunting agent.
Idea was that, the ai models like opus 4.6 and codex 5.4 have become so good at trying new ways to attack a problem, that even just Bash() tool is enough.
Continuing the idea, infact even File() operations are enough.
Again continuing the same line of thought, even just a Tape is enough. Given enough time, codex and opus will achieve your target.
Few years back, I tried to look on reddit for complaints regarding this - barely anything.
