A really misunderstood vibe coding task, especially in more corperate settings, is code removal and refactorings.
I think this is the the fundamental misunderstanding about agentic development: people only see it as a tool to add code.
This smells like BS to me, and I have a bird’s eye view into several enterprises and startups.
LLMs are not being used for code removal or refactorings, it’s either to “hopefully unblock” this large project that has been behind deadline for 12 months, or to just speed up development (somewhat).
Sorry, the "I" should have been an "A" (which I have corrected).
You are right that they are not. And that is the issue, the misunderstanding.
