Started an entire consulting practice to get engineering teams and founders out of vibe coded pits. Even got a great domain for it - vibebusters

So far business is booming and clients are happy with both human interactions with senior engineers as well as a final deliverable on best practices for using AI to write code.

Curious to compare notes

Do you sell overpriced generative AI solutions, or do you consult them on how to pivot away from idiotic generative AI?

Can't tell if you're in on it, but he's implying this waste is no different than average for consulting

I take offence at comparing my consulting services writing real software by hand like we did in 2021 with generative AI spambots.

(I'm not really offended honestly. Startups will come crying to un-vibe the codebases soon enough.)

YES!

So much about can't have the cake and eat it

Sell them the cake and then get paid to eat it.

Good thing consulting is one thing AI is decent at
