> If you follow agile one of the tenets is getting working code to users fast in order to get feedback sooner rather than later.

There's no mention of that anywhere in the manifesto

  Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
  Working software over comprehensive documentation
  Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
  Responding to change over following a plan

It's mostly saying to focus on active factors more than rigid rituals so that that the product evolves faster and in the right direction. There's no mention on pumping code out as fast as you can.

I was going by this:

https://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html

Specifically:

"Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software."

I guess there are religious texts, and then there are the interpretations of those texts.

I failed to see how AI assistance can make the cycle faster. The actual writing code is a very small part after the initial cycle. The most important aspect is to have a theory of the software (or the part you own) so that you can contrast it with requirements. Such theory is hard to get without a close relationship with the code.
