The quality of Claude’s UI and ChatGPT’s is the number one reason I’m skeptical of so many “vibe coding” claims. If it were possible, those webapps would be much better.
I’m not anti-AI, I use copilot, I use aider, I use Claude code, I try out tons of tools. LLM are incredibly cool but I’ve yet to see them tackle existing codebases successfully unless you limit scope and tweak things just right. By the time you’ve done all that you could have written the code in half the time. LLM code is impressive for one-shot but iteration or long-term planning are not places they currently excel.
