Github should have "LLM" as language for repos that self report to be vibe coded or at least this kind of disclosure should be at the top of the readme not after thought.

Also the "If you're Anti-AI please don't use this." is pretty funny :D I guess I must be "Anti-AI" when I think this kind of code is wild to rely on.

I fully support the AI self-disclosure, but what I wonder what it is about AI generated code that makes this a separate problem from any other code where you don't know the programmer's competence?

Is it because the AI can generate code that looks like it was made by a competent programmer, and is therefore deceiving you?

But whatever the reason, I think that if we use it as a way to shame the people who do tell us then we can be assured that willingness to disclose it going forward will be pretty abysmal.

I think it makes sense for stuff that is fully AI generated to the point where you commit the prompts to git. At that point, they become the real "source code" and the generated code is more of a build artifact. It makes sense to tag the language as "LLM" instead of e.g. "Python" because that's what contributors will be expected to touch when interacting with the codebase.

there is a non-zero chance that the human programmer has an interest in producing correct, secure code. there is zero chance than an LLM has the same interest. maybe those two are closer together in some cases, but not in many others.

LLMs and Humans fundamentally write different kind of code.

As humans we segment functionality and by nature avoid extra work as much as possible. Meaning reading someone else's code even if they are less competent makes sense and you can see the intention.

With LLM code everything is mixed together with no rime or reason and unless separately specified old useless functionality won't be cleaned out just because it is no longer used.

Also just the fact that people who use LLMs to vibe code bigger things usually aren't capable of reviewing what is going on in the first place, but if you are dangerous enough yourself to write a bigger piece of software you probably do know something about the problem on a deeper level and can test it.

I don't really see shaming. If you vibe code something and you are proud of it good for you, but LLMs currently are not capable of creating good software.
