This might not pan out to be the glorious victory of human craft as you’re imagining it to be.
Here’s a slightly different future - these AI rescue consultants are bots too, just trained for this purpose.
Plausible?
I have already experienced claude 4.7 handle pretty complex refactors without issues. Scale and correctness aren’t even 1% of the issue it was last year. You just have to get the high level design right, or explicitly ask it critique your design before building it.
And the bots training the bots are just bots that were trained to train bots?
One AI can't vibe code out of the mess, so you'd make another AI trained on getting out of vibe coded messes?
That's serious levels of circular thinking right there.
I think that will happen. I think several things can be true at the same time:
- AI Hype
- AI Psychosis
- AI keeps getting better and better until it can work around big AI slop code bases

Do you think people are not giving their agents specs and asking for input?
