I've tried vibe coding two scripts before, and it's honestly brain-fog-inducing.
Llm coding won't be a thing after 2027.
What do you expect to replace LLM coding?
...regular coding, again. We've been doing this for decades now and this LLM bullshit is wholely unnecessary and extremely detrimental.
The AI bubble will pop. Shit will get even more expensive or nonexistent (as these companies go bust, because they are ludicrously unprofitable), because the endless supply of speculative and circular investments will dry up, much like the dotcom crash.
It's such an incredibly stupid thing to not only bet on, but to become dependent on to function. Absolute lunacy.
I would bet on LLMs being around and continuing to be useful for some subset of coding in 10 years.
I would not bet my retirement funds on current AI related companies.
They aren't useful now, but even assuming they were, the fundamental issue is that it's extremely expensive to train and run them, and there is no current inkling of a business model where they actually make sense, financially. You would need to charge far more than what people could actually afford to pay to make them anywhere near profitable. Every AI company is burning through cash at an insane rate. When the bubble pops and the money runs out, no one will want to train and host them anymore for commercial purposes.
They may not be useful to you... but you can't speak for everyone.
You are incorrect on inference costs. But yes training models is expensive and the economics are concerning.
