>Most literature classes discuss works where the author is unavailable.
This is not actually a literature class, and the author, as such, is available. And the purpose of Show HN is to have a conversation with the author.
>The point of AI is not to generate code and not pay attention…
Yes it is. That's what "vibe coding" is. That's what all AI workflows converge towards. That's how most people use it. And that's what makes discussing AI generated posts so limiting.
The author did not claim to have “vibe coded” anything.
> My concept, my guidance, and Gemini Flash doing the work. Took about 4 hours and 50+ conversations with Gemini.
You are right though. It is exhausting since some people just can’t get it through their head that you can use AI and still understand the output.
Nobody's generating this in four hours and understanding anything, but if I'm wrong I welcome the author's replies. It would make more interesting conversation than usual for these threads, which I guess are just supposed to be for kudos now.
