Ask HN: Would you let your AI coding agent profile and optimize autonomously?

A Hacker News user asks whether developers would let AI coding agents autonomously profile and optimize code, arguing that AI outperforms humans at these tasks and that human-in-the-loop profiling is a bottleneck.

Profiling is fun. Coding is also fun. But realizing AI is doing a far better job than me it just makes sense that I hand over the task. Profiling is still left as a human in the loop kind of work and blocks me to create a better harness. Would anyone find this needed too? If so, what language and platform?
