All of the real world code I have had to review created by AI is buggy slop (often with subtle, but weird bugs that don't show up for a while). But on HN I'm told "this is because your co-workers don't know how to AI right!!!!" Then when someone who supposedly must be an expert in getting things done with AI posts, it's always big claims with hand-wavy explanations/evidence.
Then the comments section is littered with no effort comments like this.
Yet oddly whenever anyone asks "show me the thing you built?" Either it looks like every other half-working vibe coded CRUD app... or it doesn't exist/can't be shown.
If you tell me you have discovered a miracle tool, just some me the results. Not taking increasingly ridiculous claims at face value is not "fear". What I don't understand is where comments like yours come from? What makes you need this to be more than it is?
I've worked extensively in the AI space, and believe that it is extremely useful, but these weird claims (even from people I respect a lot) that "something big and mysterious is happening, I just can't show you yet!" set of my alarms.
When sensible questions are met with ad hominems by supporters it further sets of alarm bells.
They have to maintain the hype until a somewhat credible exit appears and therefore lash out with boomer memes, FOMO, and the usual insane talking points like "there are builders and coders".
