      sure, that’s true, but if we are being serious do you think software made nearly exclusively by a human (or humans) who care or software made mostly by a non-deterministic token generator working on behalf of a human who couldn’t bother to write the code themself is more likely to be maintained long enough to gain community trust

        Using AI isn’t just a sign of laziness. I don’t see an issue with using the tools available to do something in less time than usual. If a program is vibe coded then of course it’s usually going to be of bad quality, but if it’s a mix of human and human checked AI then it can still be a high quality project.
