Makes sense as part of a larger coding workflow, especially if it’s fast. Using a trillion parameter model to figure out how to call a targeted edit tool or generate a commit message is a waste. Also narrow tasks like “make the background darker” or “rename this function and update callers”
- roywiggins 4mo ago> “rename this function and update callers” I'm old enough to remember when IDEs could do this without needing a couple gigabytes of matrices to do it (LLMs are great for anything even slightly more complicated ofc)
- Hfuffzehn 4mo agoThe first time I was impressed by AI coding was when I pointed it at some switch case monster code and told it to replace it with a strategy pattern. And it did just fine. So no matter what you think about vibe coding, using AI for these slightly more complicated use cases is genuinely useful.
