This isn’t going to happen.

I can already build a ticket tracker in a weekend. I’ve been on many teams that used Jira, nobody loves Jira, none of us ever bothered to DIY something good enough.

Why?

Because it’s a massive distraction. It’s really fun to build all these side apps, but then you have to maintain them.

I’m guessing a lot of vibeware will be abandoned rather than maintained.

Teams skip DIY trackers because maintenance is expensive now if agents cut that cost a lot more teams will tolerate the distraction.

Who said you’re building it? You’re telling your AI to build it while you go play golf or something.

The hard part has always been shipping, buttoning things up, doing the design. Not the idea per say. And then if any of it is successful and starts making money guess who you're gonna call to maintain it?

		These are local systems. Think of it like vibe coding your personal GUI or CLI. Each programmer uses their own custom build. There's no maintenance except only for themselves. You typically use an off the shelf project management software because it's too time consuming to build one catered to your own preferences. But with AI, it just does it for you. I'm talking about custom one off personal solutions readily done because of AI executing on it for you.

If AI can build your software for you, you aren't going to be playing golf, you're going to be standing in line in the soup kitchen.

That's not how anything works.

		Seriously. For starters I don’t even play golf! And it’s all downhill from there…
