Yeah, things aren’t quite that bad where I work yet (thanks to no one wanting to pay the outrageous bills associated with the “frontier models”), but some people keep pushing for it. Personally, I’m still hoping that either the bubble bursts real soon and/or the people in charge realize that “enterprise-class” and “vibe-coded” are mutually exclusive software concepts, but who knows.

In the meantime, at my work, we’re still doing mandatory human PR reviews (with optional copilot ones), and there’s a big push for “respectful” AI use (as in being respectful of others, like always reading any text / code the AI generated for you before asking someone else to). We’ll see how it goes.

I hope things get better for you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de (and for anyone else dealing with the same issues).

I’m really uncertain about this, to be honest. Short-term, you can vibe-code a ton of stuff and get away with it. I think that quality/correctness only matters for a small fraction of software out there. But long-term? I guess that then depends on whether you’re able to still pay the AI bills. Maintenance/refactoring is going to be veeeeeeeeeeery expensive, and virtually no human will be able to do those tasks. Or, you know, just rip off your customers and don’t sell any long-lasting support contracts in the first place.

I dunno. 🤷‍♀️

Thanks! 🙏
