That's what is nice about LLMs. You CAN do these things now!

Maybe I'm out of touch with the times, but I wouldn't feel safe riding an e-scooter with custom vibe coded firmware.

What make you think it is vibe coded? There is no mention of genAI being used, and the methodology looks more consistent with hand-written code he actually understands.

		What makes you think the original wasn't vibe coded?!

You don't have to fully vibe code it. Most of this stuff doesn't take massive brains, it is just super tedious - especially the reverse engineering. I've never really had the patience for that (except one USB devices that I did reverse engineer when I was younger). AI really helps with the tedium.

If it is coded in safe Rust, why not ?

Safe rust does not mean correct logic; best not conflate the two.

You could have perfectly safe rust that disables brakes above a certain speed, inverts steering by wire, or adjusts the charging parameters, for example (depending on addressable capabilities).

So you're still not brainy enough to do it, but the LLM can.

I mean. Sort of? The LLM won't go into checking random USB-C connections with an oscilloscope - it doesn't have hands, for one.

FdCAN or Bx?
