Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Battle lines are being drawn between two camps of developers: so-called vibecoders, on the one side—those who wholeheartedly embrace handing over complex coding tasks to AI tools—and on the other, those of a more puritan persuasion, who prefer to keep AI out of the codebase.

What a terrible article. That's not what vibe coding means.

Is there a better definition (I understand the articles one is kind of shitty)? Personally I do query the bot for various reasons but I'm not delegating complex problem solving to it, obviously.

I would say accepting AI code without review, without having to understand any of the code.

Guess I am a puritan for not wanting garbage that burns the planet in my everyday life I guess.

No you're a puritan because you want code that works made by engineers. Scum.

Yeah, that’s really dishonest framing. The whole point of vibe coding is not reading the code but trusting in its correctness based on vibes. That’s fine for low-risk internal programs, but just a downright terrible strategy for anything else, even if you have an independent test suite. Those tests may pass, but the implementation itself will be an unreadable mess

At least it outputs an unreadable mess in 20 mins, rather than 2 weeks
