It's a great addition to vibe coding: people who can't code and don't want to learn can now write commit messages they won't understand. Do we really need LLMs and AI slop to write a few sentences now? What's next? LLMs to move the cursor of your mouse because it's too hard?

Actually, it will be great. If I am disabled from the waist up, and I want to continue coding, I would love to be able to ask AI to do a lot of things that I think are too hard.
Do you want AI to "think" for you, or just a really good context-aware robot? This is definitely an attempt at the former.
Would "we" not realize this though? I don't care as long as things work. In some cases the source code has to be organized, with proper naming and so forth. I think by looking at either the end product and/or the source code, we could tell if the use of LLM was done by someone who does not know what he is doing, at least in some cases, vs. done by someone who does know what he is doing.
