I tried vibe-coding some non-trivial code. It failed successfully.
The resulting code had a memory leak (from good old Promise.race) that would have caused the app to continuously grow the RAM usage.
I decided to let the AI code, and then asked it to fix the problems, describing the issue (steadily growing RAM usage). It was not able to find the issue.
That's what I'm afraid of. We'll get megabytes of code that just fails sometimes, for unfathomable reasons.

- cyberax 2y agoSorry, not even close. A single human can't write megabytes of code within a few hours, unless it's something that was repeatedly cut&pasted. AI can create megabytes of complicated code that will be impossible to debug. It can do what you want it to do, but not quite. Kinda like a genie from a lamp.
