Skill engineering and the case against one-shot AI design

Latent Space 2 weeks ago

Paul Bakaus created Impeccable, an open-source system that gives AI agents a vocabulary for iterative design improvements—allowing users to request changes like "bolder" or "quieter" rather than one-shot redesigns. The system defines design terms through specific operational concepts such as hierarchy, scale and typography, translating vague adjectives into precise instructions that agents can execute across different coding environments and models. Bakaus designed the tool to keep humans in control of the final 20% of decisions where taste and context matter, explicitly rejecting automation-only approaches in favor of human-agent collaboration.

AIEWF Daily Dispatch: Autoresearch and the tension between AI and human agency

Latent Space 2 weeks ago

Speakers at the AI Engineer World's Fair debated whether AI agents should handle both inner execution loops and outer oversight loops, or whether humans must retain control of the higher-level decision-making that shapes what systems build. Paul Bakaus's design tool Impeccable rejects fully automated generation, instead having agents handle the first 80% of work before humans complete the final 20% to add their creative judgment. The consensus emerging across multiple sessions suggests that human agency remains essential for defining goals, maintaining quality standards, and taking responsibility for outputs, even as agents become more capable at execution.
