I audited the source for the two projects I built today with Codex in Xcode and it's hard to find anything I could classify as 'slop'. It perhaps speaks to how well Cocoa development is structured, how consistent everything is, but it all just looks… normal. I would have no problem whatsoever building upon and maintaining by hand what I've got here — there are no weird hacks, nothing that makes me scratch my head, nothing I wouldn't have done myself. The horror stories may just be horror stories

@stroughtonsmith For me, it's much less about slop and much more about the risk of societal, cognitive, and environmental damage (not to mention the basis of theft) that prevents me from getting excited about any of it 😔

I'd much rather see more tools that make it easier to get started on new ideas be invented that _don't_ use LLMs… surely we as a whole could build towards that kind of future instead 😅

@dimitribouniol @stroughtonsmith hmmm.. You could look into GSD just don't let it write code but just specs and examples and split work.

@dimitribouniol @stroughtonsmith ok. It's LLM but beats the hell out of looking up documentation and APIs and saves you from analysis paralysis
