No one knows so just embrace it :)

LLM capabilities are mind-blowing.

I’m not a super experienced engineer career-wise ~5 years, so take my view with a grain of salt - but I’ve done work in full-stack, systems, gaming, extensions (web and ide), low level languages including assembly, and a small amount of embedded.

I spend almost all my spare time coding. And have done so for the last 5 years. So I consider myself capable of bringing most projects to fruition.

I roll my eyes when people say “AI sucks” “AI isn’t better than me” “AI doesn’t speed me up” - it’s either a load of shit, delusion, cope, high-horsing, or they are a Luddite.

I’m sorry but the rate at which I can work pre-AI and post-AI is insane (when not limited by bureaucracy). Yes the outputs and code can be terrible, but I can prototype 10 ideas in the time it would take me in the past to prototype 1.

However most of the LLMs approaches are fucking terrible, it gets it working but it’s pure spaghetti and I do all the architecture and usually most of the code. But I prototype ideas with AI. Like if you actually use performance monitoring and memory monitoring tools, LLMs have no fucking clue what they are doing and make slow bloated buggy shit.

But it’s great for blueprinting.

Who’s to say it won’t also be great at implementing too? I think it will be.

But for now it requires guidance and orchestration and I mostly use it to test concepts.

I did my first purely vibe coded completely hands off project the other week and loved the results! It was just for fun.
