alt Hacker Newsi've been using ai vibe coding tools since Copilot was basically spicy autocomplete, and this feels like the next obvious step: less “help me type” and more “please do this while I watch nervously.” The agent model sounds powerful, but in practice it’s still a lot of supervision, retries, and quiet hope it doesn’t hallucinate itself into a refactor I didn’t ask for.
So if the agent struggles even when you are working with it, how will it be better working alone? This is why I never let the agent work by themselves. I'm very opinionated about my code.
Does it somehow gain some superpower from being left alone?
