That's still rather vague tbh. There's a pretty big spectrum of how involved an AI gets beyond just letting the AI do everything, and the line between 'vibe coding' and not is blurry and changes between individuals.
Are you treating the AI like a glorified StackOverflow/Google to get suggestion and then manually writing/adapting the code yourself? Are you letting the AI do all the coding and running a lot of tests? Is it something in between or outside those examples?
I'm not trying to string you up, it's just that communication and disclosure are important in FOSS
Fair point. To be more specific we're somewhere in between. AI writes a lot of code for us, but there's a developer in the loop who reads every line and understands what it's doing. We still make the call on whether it stays unlike the traditional vibe coder who doesn't know what to look for. Hope that clears things up a bit.
I see, thank you for explaining. Personally, I will stick with alternatives as I've a moral obligation to LLM usage for things like this, although it sucks to say that as the 'selling features' of this app are really enticing to me. Hope things work out.
