Ask HN: Anyone know of that "levels of AI programming" blog post?

10 points by tuvix ↗ HN
I was browsing HN comments a while ago and ran into a wonderful blog on the levels of AI involvement in programming. It started at 0 I think, with no AI involved and went to around 7 where LLMs direct other LLMs and no human is involved.

I wanted to reference these levels in the README of an open source project I'm creating as part of it was hand-programmed while using AI as a kind of search engine, while another part was crafted by AI with me reviewing code and providing a spec.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I feel like we're moving toward needing a standard for this. "Level of AI involvement" could easily become part of project documentation norms.
