Software Development and Data Analysis Agents
This chapter explores how natural language—our everyday English or whatever language you prefer to interact in with an LLM—has emerged as a powerful interface for programming, a paradigm shift that, when taken to its extreme, is called vibe coding. Instead of learning acquiring new programming languages or frameworks, developers can now articulate their intent in natural language, leaving it to advanced LLMs and frameworks such as LangChain to translate these ideas into robust, production-ready code. Moreover, while traditional programming languages remain essential for production systems, LLMs are creating new workflows that complement existing practices and potentially increase accessibility This evolution represents a significant shift from earlier attempts at code generation and automation.
We’ll specifically discuss LLMs’ place in software development and the state of the art of performance, models, and...
