An exploratory analysis of nearly 6,000 real-world coding agent sessions is reported, finding that such records support analysis of turn authorship, degrees of human specification, and subsequent machine activity, but they cannot establish displaced choice or programmer awareness.
The MPL (the Moral Programming Language) is proposed, a notation whose rendered form is the primary representation of the moral behaviour a user intends, by which the LLM is demoted from moral agent to authoring assistant, and a plain-language projection of its proposals is delivered to the people the system would gove...
There appears to be two distinct camps gathering steam as AI coding agents get increasingly adept at generating software on the basis of some light natural language specifications: those who want to maximally remove the ‘error-prone’ sentient bags of mostly water at the keyboard and those who stubbornly assert their ow...

An anecdotal account of AI agents, equipped with a CLI and a proof assistant, producing thousands of lines of machine-checked code, and the role of the human expert, whose contribution reduces to providing natural-language problem descriptions, reviewing auto-generated specifications, and occasionally supplying a key i...

Kurt Wonnegut’s Player Piano is a cautionary tale about the social and ethical consequences of unchecked automation that raises pressing questions about what work means when machines can perform tasks more efficiently than humans, and how societies might cope with the loss of purpose and community that meaningful labor...

A two-dimensional design space is introduced in which both dimensions are organised into five operational levels, making the coupling explicit and navigable, and six architectural tactics for adjusting a deployment’s position within it are proposed, offering a shared vocabulary for compliance-aware agentic AI design.

It is argued that while Generative AI is clever, it is not wise, and that a world governed by AI would be a world that had gained in cleverness, but had lost wisdom.
