Re: Why Vibe Coding Is Overrated
#3I don't know if anyone else shares my experience, but for me, vibe coding has been a complete miss.
I'm not sure if it's the way I've been prompting, but for anything beyond the banal, LLMs have completely failed to generate what I would consider to be acceptable code.
For anything with WebGL, high-performance networking, or generally anything requiring taste, I think there's still quite a way to go...
Maybe ironically, but it seems to me that we are still _so far_ from being able to generate something like this: https://www.stripe.press/scaling purely from prompting.

Totally agree. Recently I asked ChatGPT to write a Z-80 assembler function to multiply two 8-bit numbers. I specified Z-80 assembler to get away from the mainstream. I tried the same prompt three times and got three different responses, two of which were obviously wrong and the third had no obvious flaw but was rather clumsy.
