Yep, this is happening in lots of companies. I know my small company has about ~1/3rd of the developers working on one (different ones, all semi-personal projects).
I sometimes wonder if we are drawn to building these because it feels like one of the remaining challenges and a desire not to be an "LLM text shuttle". Additionally/alternatively, you can go as fast as you want with building a software factory and you aren't held back by the "bottlenecks" (PR review, QA, etc).
Working on my software factory is the closest to a "flow state" I've been able to achieve since LLMs turned the corner earlier this year and replaced the vast majority of our code-writing work.
