There's so many AI slop decomps right now, it fucking sucks. There's a lot of people that doesn't even understand the basics of coding doing it just to get these stuff running and it's so obvious it is gonna be abandoned because the prompter doesn't even know how to fix the bugs people file for their projects.

This is specially bad in the game decomp scene. Good thing there are actual good recomps/decomps being made, like SymphonyRecomp and MediEvilRecomp.

I get using AI to help with the more repetitive stuff and under really strict supervision, but there's way too many stuff just entirely vibecoded right now.

    Yes and the existence of the vibe coded project deters new projects with real effort from even occurring because people don't want to compete with other projects or stir drama by being a competing project. Additionally you know anything the serious project does is just gonna end up contributing to the vibe coded project which is a good reason for people not to want to do it. The very existence of this shit reduces the existence of better things.

    Eh, 'Yet another' is like at the core of the computing community. Nobody's out there complaining about a lack of Doom ports or Linux Distros.

    Those weren't competing for attention and brainspace on every online repository. We're going to have to make "non-shit" lists for everything into the future because some mouthbreather discovered he can make some simulcrum of a finish job for like 12 things in a day.

    Before if you wanted to make a fake game trailer for a game that didn't exist it took time to make it.

    It's 2032, you're the last person on Earth subsisting on a stockpile of cans of proteined peaches and nutri-soda. You have a working internet connection to the human knowledge Xanadu Satellite Network. You only have an Intel Atom-powered netbook (has a disc drive somehow), a Philips CD-i, and one CD-RW. You want to play Doom on the CD-i, but thetr are 72 decomps on the forever-archived Github repository and all of the archived comments on their pages are spun-up bot networks accusing the others of being vibecoded.

    You decide to download CDoom-i [NOT VIBECODED].

    You burn it and start it up. The D-pad inputs are 90-degrees rotated to the right.

    It's vibe-coded.

    It's getting one foot in the door though. Humans can deslop the code later on

    "one foot in the door" is as useful as an "ideas guy", which is not at all. Producing slop themed around a project provides no value for anyone else who actually wants to work on it. If anything, skilled humans avoid working for free on projects or ideas associated with LLMs.

    As you are an engineering student, you should be embarrassed for posting this comment.
