Number of issues will likely keep growing if they only rely on Claude to try and fix every bug, especially if they try adding features. Same pattern as majority of vibe coded projects. AI is a great tool but not a replacement.

Edit: typo

When I tried vibe coding, every time a bug was fixed, two more appeared. I raged and just asked for a good Java course recommendation

This happens with every popular project on GitHub, human or otherwise. It’s a sign of popularity

Majority of popular Github projects break after updates?

Until they stabilize, yes.

Issues wouldn’t be found if nobody would be trying it out.

If it follows the pattern of majority of vibe coded projects than it'll likely not stabilize, unless you have people reviewing the code Claude produces.

Basically feeding those tickets through verifier to see are bugs valid and filter out prompt injections, they would be good material to automate fixes.

Also people verifying doesn’t add much, what you need to do is to develop tests.

Have you ever used any popular GitHub repo? They have been riddled with issues long before LLMs came along

And accepting AI code blindly would help?

100% it does if you use the right model in the right way

The guy who created it has 15 year of coding exp afaik

I have as much. It means nothing if you're lazily accepting whatever code AI shits out

Yes but we don't know if he's actually reviewing his contributions. He bragged about not coding anything manually since February.

Most people in the field had 15 years of coding experience at 25 years old, mate.

Okay?

You mean for now. Remember when power tools were first introduced in automotive assembly lines? How much is that process involves humans today?

u/Axol555 Linux 10h ago

I think that runs into the same issue was the compiler analogy Linus Torvald's used, automative assembly lines are deterministic, while gen AI isn't.

I think you’re missing the point. It took about a century for power tools to evolve into full-blown automation. A year ago LLMs struggled with code bases beyond 1400 lines. Today Claude can generate entire multifaceted applications with tens of thousands of lines of code. Given that rate of expansion, where do you think will be in another year. That’s why I said “for now”.

Regarding assembly lines being deterministic by nature, let’s be honest. There were no other choices. That’s about to change as well.

Is the guy thas overseeing the development of the craft alternatives a good dev with good subject knowledge enough to oversee those projects?
