It can become pretty bad quickly, with just a small project with only 15-20 files. I’ve been using cursor IDE, building out flow charts & tests manually, and just seeing where it goes.
And while incredibly impressive how it’s creating all the steps, it then goes into chaos mode where it will start ignoring all the rules. It’ll start changing tests, start pulling in random libraries, not at all thinking holistically about how everything fits together.
Then you try to reel it in, and it continues to go rampant. And for me, that’s when I either take the wheel or roll back.
I highly recommend every programmer watch it in action.
Is there a chance that’s right around the time the code no longer fits into the LLMs input window of tokens? The basic technology doesn’t actually have a long term memory of any kind (at least outside of the training phase).
Write tests and run them, reiterate until all tests pass.
Bogosort with extra steps
That doesn’t sound viby to me, though. You expect people to actually code? /s
You can vibe code the tests too y’know
Return “works”;
Am I doikg this correctly?
You know, I’d be interested to know what the critical size you can get to with that approach is before it becomes useless.
