> which is the fake python library and the citation that the LLM has hallucinated from the real one. Vibe coding is just WYSIWYG on steroids Maybe you haven't used AI coding tools in a while, the latest ones can run build tools, write and run unit tests, run linters, and will try and fix any errors that may arise during those steps. Of course it's possible that a library may have been been hallucinated, but this will just trigger an error during the build job and the AI agent will go back and fix it. Same thing for failing unit tests. Just last week I saw Copilot fixing a failing unit test, then running the test, then making some more changes and repeating the process until the test was running successfully. At some point during this process, it asked me if it could install a VS Code extension so that it could run the test by itself, I agreed then it went from there until the issue was resolved. This was with the bottom-tier free version of Copilot. Of course there are limits to what AI tools can do, but they are evolving all the time and at some point in a not too distant future they will be good enough in most cases. Regarding hallucinated citations, I imagine that the problem can be solved by allowing the LLM to access and verify citations, then the agent can fix its own hallucinations just like most coding agents already do. |
