Carla Rover once spent 30 minutes sobbing after having to restart a project she vibe coded. Rover has been in the industry for 15 years, mainly working as a web developer. She’s now building a startup, alongside her son, that creates custom machine learning models for marketplaces.

Using AI to sell AI, infinite money glitch! /s

“Using a coding co-pilot is kind of like giving a coffee pot to a smart six-year-old and saying, ‘Please take this into the dining room and pour coffee for the family,’” Rover said. Can they do it? Possibly. Could they fail? Definitely. And most likely, if they do fail, they aren’t going to tell you.

No, a kid will learn if s/he fucks up and, if pressed, will spill the beans. AI is, despite being called "intelligent", not learning anything from its mistakes and often forgetting things because of limitations - consistency is still one of the key problems for all LLM and image generators

If you bring a 6yo into office and tell them to do your work for you, you should be locked up. For multiple reasons.

Not sure why they thought that was a positive comparison.
