They won't blame the AI as the root cause. They will blame you.

This is why I mention you need to be competent enough to understand what is being generated or they will find someone else who does. There's no 2 ways around it. AI is here to stay.

Yes I agree. They will and should blame the human. That's a problem when the human isnt given enough time to complete projects because "AI is SO productive"

The idea that you will actually really review all that vibecoded slop code comes across as very naive.

The real question is how many companies have to accidentally expose their databases, suffer business-ruining data losses, and have downtime they are utterly unable to recover from quickly before CxOs start adjusting their opinions?

Last time I saw a "Show HN" of someone showing off their vibecoded project, it leaked their OpenAI API key to all users. If that's how you want to run your business, go right ahead.

> you need to be competent enough to understand what is being generated

We're all competent enough to understand what is generated. That's why everyone is doomer about it.

What insights do you have above us when the LLM generates

    true="false"
    while i < 10 {
      i++
    }

What's the deep philosophical understanding that you have about this that makes us all sheeple for not understanding how this is actually the business's goose laying golden eggs. Not the engineers.

Frankly. Businesses that use this, drop all their actual engineers, and then fall over when the slightest breeze comes.

I am actually in favour, in a accelerationist sense.

Have you actually tried using AI to generate code? Try it with a hobby project. You might be surprised!
