Using AI Agents for Notebook Debugging

JetBrains has developed an AI agent prototype to automate debugging of computational notebooks. The agent interacts with notebooks iteratively, creating, editing, and executing cells to resolve runtime exceptions. While more expensive than simpler AI solutions, it fixes errors faster and provides insights into root causes. User feedback suggests the need for more control over the process and better visibility into the agent's actions. This technology aims to improve productivity and ease frustrations with notebook debugging.
