Yup.

For me the biggest signifier is Spotify. They claim their (best) devs don't even code anymore, they use an internal AI tool that they just send prompts to which then checks out a personal test build that they can download off of Slack. "A new feature in 10 minutes!"

Okay, if that is the case, why have we only seen like 3-4 minor new QoL improvements in Spotify the last ~12 months, with no new grand features? And why haven't they fired 95% of their devs and let the remaining elite go buckwild with Claude?

The Emperor really has no clothes.

Anthropic released vibe coded C compiler that doesn't work, how their LLM can help in maintaining PyPy?

Most maintainers don't have a stack of cash to throw at tokens.
