Troy Hunt has been a pillar in the cybersecurity community with his Have I Been Pwned project for many, many years, even walked back a purchase of it because he felt they would compromise the principles of the project. But now he has just gone all-in on AI. On a previous Weeky Update he published a "Robophobia Equality Policy" after receiving pushback to his openclaw usage. Since then he has posted more of his usage of AI, and in the latest he suggest that "people are getting into the program" because he seems to be receiving less pushback and because of Linus' affirmations

Text of Troy Hunt's Weekly Update 526, quoting: "I have this sense that we've passed the point where "vibe coding" is a derogatory term. I have no empirical evidence for this; it's more a feeling that those weaponising the term have now accepted the inevitability and are just getting with the program."

Is there an argument to be made other than slop? All i have seen as far as arguments for is: "this other thing is slop, so why can't I slop here?", "what if it's only a little bit of slop" or "what if I serve you slop anyway and you don't notice". I don't care if you only put a thimbleful of dogshit in your soup, it's still shit soup.
