Flathub Reverses AI-Generated App Ban, Now Requires Disclosure

Makes sense. AI can accelerate experienced coders. I’m ok to see people use AI for helping but NOT for Vibe Coding.

no it cant. every time someone does a study they find it slows people down and degrades quality. youre just parroting an ad basically.

“Degrades quality” assumes developers are already writing good code to start. Unfortunately that just isn’t true. For people who know what they are doing and can properly guide it, it absolutely speeds up the menial tasks that plague software engineering. I’m not even a fan of the direction AI is going yet I absolutely see the value here.

For the AI haters, we really need to attack it from a better angle than “it doesn’t work” because it absolutely does.

My coworker made a tool(because where we work doesn’t allow plugins to it ide yet) that will load our code for context and we can write prompts against it. After we found the source of a big he used his tool and it found the problem in less than a min after asking why we were seeing the behavior in the application( tied up application pools)
