Tbh I don't care if vibe coding or generated art is produced as I think general public will eventually accept them or decide when it's worth to use/consume those kind of products.
What I really hate is agentic customer support, sales etc. - when you have to use them you realize how stupid the workflows, tool call, MCP, and all that garbage that is glued is just to reduce costs instead of churn.
PS: Ironically I'm working on coding an "agentic platform" for the product suite and their backend services. I simply don't feel confident about the product I'm building but I guess it is paying my bills for the moment
I'm just using Copilot CLI for mindless stuff and set it to the premium models to meet the quota, as long as they can't see the prompts I think I should be fine
On my side I have used Claude code, tbh for solo projects it's good enough if you already know what you need to do.
Answering your questions:
On my job we've been spoon fed to use GH copilot everywhere we can. It's been configured to review PRs, make corrections etc. - I'd say it's good enough but from time to time it will raise false positives on issues. I'd say it works fine but you still need to keep an eye on generated BS.
I've seen coworkers show me amazing stuff done with agentic coding and I've seen coworkers open up slop PRs with bunch of garbage generated code which is kind of annoying, but I'll let it slide...
Stack - .NET, Angular, SQL Server and ofc hosted in Azure.
Team is composed of about 100 engineers (devs, QA, devops etc.) and from what I can see there are no Juniors, which is sad to see if you ask me
I was using it the same way you just described but for C# and Angular and you're spot on. It feels amazing not having to memorize APIs and just let the AI even do code coverage near to 100%, however at some point I began noticing 2 things:
- When tests didn't work I had to check what was going on and the LLMs do cheat a lot with Volkswagen tests, so that began to make me skeptic even of what is being written by the agents
- When things were broken, spaghetti and awful code tends to be written in an obnoxius way it's beyond repairable and made me wish I had done it from scratch.
Thankfully I just tried using agents for tests and not for the actual code, but it makes me think a lot if "vibe coding" really produces quality work.
Agree, I'm not the kind of guy that has 100 tabs open (10 at the time I'm typing this), but when I came back 2 years ago I noticed that it isn't as snappy and fast as it used to be 15 years ago before I switched to Chrome.
The company that made me unsubscribe from Evernote after 8 years because it got slow, buggy and skyrocketed their prices.
Good riddance, now I am using Obsidian + an LLM and works way better.
