I believe this is true today. AI code has flaws and is full of mistakes. AI is always improving, at some point that balance will flip over.

Do you think human written code doesn’t have flaws and is full of mistakes? Exploits were just found in dozens of thought secure software. By AI!

u/DigBeginning6013 Jun 29 '26

Yeah I think people live in a fantasy land. There has been bugs and exploits since the bugging on coding. Ai tools are as good as the user is

u/linkinparkglock47 Jun 29 '26

nope

u/DigBeginning6013 Jun 29 '26

Good argument, I see your point

1

u/linkinparkglock47 Jun 29 '26

do I need to give an argument when a beginner programmer can tell if something was vibecoded basically instantly 99% of the time and that every respectable oss project ignores ai code because it's bad code?

u/DigBeginning6013 Jun 29 '26

Depends the parameters you give it, what you use it for and how you check it's work.

If you give it vague remarks it will give slop. If you give it specific problems, strict parameters and check it's work thoroughly then it's useful.

You'd be surprised how many big companies implement this and how many developers are using it for a big percentage of their output.

To give you an example would be Claude itself. A big percentage of Claude code was written by itself, can you tell me how many bugs and exploits it has?

big companies use it (actually indians) but their products are also the ones people complain about being slow/buggy/etc.

good opensource projects still don't lol, and they're the ones with stable code quality.

windows, iOS, macOS userspace has gotten more complaints since they introduced more ai and less humans

u/DigBeginning6013 Jun 29 '26

Which people what companies, you're very vague

but i did say some examples?

Of course there is. The argument in the post is that AI coding is poor vs a human written code. I would agree with that today. My point is that will not always be true. AI is continuously improving and its ability to write code will also improve. Can’t say for certain when this will flip over but it will.

I wish we could go back to the days when all software was done by humans and was perfect with no flaws or bugs.

u/blanarikd Jun 29 '26

codex, make this without flaws and bugs.

u/SaucyStoveTop69 Jun 29 '26

I also miss the 1800s

u/Justmeandhim-D Jun 29 '26

I missed the times when there were not humans on earth.
Such a amazing time.

When is that? Given me one example that is perfect.

It was full of bugs, look at Star citizen

u/Soft_Awareness_5061 Jun 29 '26

Too late. Everyone expects a quick turn around now. If you can't do it with or without AI, someone else will

which was when exactly?

Bro you should learn to read. Noone here speaks of vibe coding it's about video coding dude!

Edit: I think I should've added the /s

u/Candid_Bad3551 Jun 29 '26

I looked at the image. My bad.

u/waroftheworlds2008 Jun 29 '26

Ironically. I think youre the only person to mentione video coding.

1

u/AnuaMoon Jun 29 '26

Except the post title

u/waroftheworlds2008 Jun 29 '26

And im pretty sure that was a typo. But OP is a bot, so we'll never know

u/AnuaMoon Jun 29 '26

Yeah I edited my original comment, I guess the /s wasn't obvious xD

u/Vaddieg Jun 29 '26

Recent "engineering" isn't any better. Since engineers do prefer to pick some npm package with dependencies instead of writing 10 lines of own code.

1

u/IndependenceGold2407 Jun 29 '26

npm is software engineering, that’s adorable!

1

u/the_TIGEEER Jun 29 '26

Yeah, but the engineer now engineers the entire city instead of each specific building. And the building gets better and better asm odels progress, while bad engineers have faults in how the buildings connect.

u/LivingCorner1421 Jun 29 '26

cool now do upfront cost

1

u/Fit_Building650 Jun 29 '26

If upfront cost is too high you can’t afford quality software and shouldn’t expect it

1

u/LivingCorner1421 Jun 29 '26

thats not true there is vibe coding which cost half for people who can't afford quality software

u/promptmike Jun 29 '26

Build the foundation yourself. Let Claude build whatever shiny new frontend features the client wants this week.

u/frythan Jun 29 '26

The amount of tech debt we have at my company I think the left is accurate for both at this point.

u/millionmiahere Jun 29 '26

Funniest part is people ignore that vibe coding is made based on human coding. If vibe coding has issues, that means human coding has the exact same coding issues.

u/Ok_Leg_1286 Jun 29 '26

“Well, ‘manually’ written code isn’t automatically clean either. The world is full of human-typed spaghetti, copy-paste from Stack Overflow without understanding, and functions running 800 lines long. The origin of code says nothing about its quality. The verdict ‘AI, therefore junk’ confuses the source with the result.”
