Comment on Study finds AI tools made open source software developers 19 percent slower

The main issue i have with AI coding, hasn’t been the code. Its a bit ham fisted and overly naive, it is as if it’s speed blind. The main issue is that some of the code is out of date using functions that are deprecated etc, and it seems to be mixing paradigms and styles across languages in a very frustrating? way.

Yep I’ve got a working iOS app, a v.2 branched and on the way, with a ton of MapKit integrations. Unfortunately I’m getting depreciation errors and having to constantly remind the AI that it’s using old code, showing it examples of new code, and then watching it forget as we keep talking.
Still, I have a working iOS app, which only took a few hours. When Jack Dorsey said he’d vibe coded his new app in a long weekend, I’m like, hey me too.

LLMs can’t forget things because they are not capable of memory.

They can hold session memory including 10+ source files, and a looong chat, but when you run into the wall, suddenly it’s eating its own memory to keep going, rather than forcing me to reset the session. Which is interesting, like co-coding with a mild amnesiac. “Hey remember when we just did that thing 2 minutes ago?” I should have started a new session when I branched.
