I had to use a vibe coded library for a personal project as the alternatives just didn’t work, and I don’t care about the bugs as it’s just for me to run the app one time.
However I did find some missing features I required that were easy to add, so I forked the project and added them. Then made a pull request.
But that made me think, would fellow anti ai people actually contribute back? Even if it was originally made with ai? Or would you go to the extreme and rewrite it yourself?
Update: after some reflection, I realised that it was hypocritical of me, as I got a rule of not promoting AI made content. I will not remove the pr, as they can just reopen it, but won’t do it again
I mean, if you already fixed bugs or improved features, then you might as well raise a PR.
Vibe coding is an indication of low quality and longevity, with a higher likelihood of bugs, flaws, and vulnerabilities. Trust takes time to build, and I’m sure some vibe projects will turn out okay, but they will always require extra scrutiny as any idiot can ask an LLM to code them anything.
