The earth is flat until you have evidence of the contrary. It's you who should provide that evidence. We had physics, navigation and then space shuttles that clearly showed the earth is not flat.
We are yet to have a fully vibe-coded piece of software that actually works. The blog post is actually great because LLMs are very good are regurgitating pieces of code that already exist on a single prompt. Now ask them to make a few changes and suddenly the genie is back in the bottle.
Something doesn't math out. You can't be both a genius and extremely dumb (retarded) at the same time. You can be, however, good at information retrieval and presenting it in a better way. That's what LLMs are and am not discounting the usefulness of that.
>You can't be both a genius and extremely dumb (retarded)
That’s actually a classic stereotype, someone being a genius in some area, but failing with the most basic social expectations in other area.
In the LLM's case it's both a genius and extremely dumb at coding. The same area.
It’s good at quickly producing a lot of code which is most likely going to give interesting results, and it’s completely unaware of anything including why human might want to produce code.
The marketing bullshit that it’s a "thinking" and "hallucinating" is just bringing the intended confusion on the table.
They are great tools for many purpose. But a GPS is not a copilot, and an LLM is not going to replace coworkers where their humanity matters.

Original post alone mentions multiple projects and links https://pine.town as no code directly written by the author.
From perspective of personally using it daily, seeing what my team is using it for it's quite shocking to still see those kind of comments, it's like we're living on different planets - again, gives flat earther like vibe.
god you are so annoying. the site that you posted doesn't even work. so wtf are you even gloating about.
We're living in such interesting times - you can talk to a computer and it works, in many cases at extraordinary level - yet you still see intellectually constipated opinions arguing against basic facts established years ago - incredible.
