The backlash was inevitable. For the past year, Silicon Valley has been telling us that software development is on the verge of becoming a prompt-and-ship exercise. You know, just describe what you want and let an AI coding agent build it. Sure, maybe you could keep a few token senior engineers around to bless the output…or maybe not. I mean, Google’s Sundar Pichai says 75% of its new code is now AI-generated and reviewed by engineers, up sharply from earlier levels.
Hurray! Right??? Well…
The Wall Street Journal recently highlighted warnings from Mario Zechner and Armin Ronacher, two engineers behind core pieces of the popular OpenClaw AI agent, who argue that AI coding tools are flooding software with what they call “vibe slop.” Their complaint is that too many people are using AI to skip the parts of software development that actually matter: design, judgment, testing, ownership, and deep understanding of the system being changed.
This is worth taking seriously. When people who help
Decart, a vertically integrated AI research lab specialising in real-time video and world models, has raised $300 million in a round led by Radical Ventures. NVIDIA, Adobe Ventures, Toyota Ventures, and eBay Ventures joined as new investors alongside returning backers Sequoia Capital and Benchmark. Amazon is a strategic customer, and individual backers include OpenAI co-founder […]
Google didn’t just ship an update at I/O 2026. They redrew the map. Google Antigravity 2.0 dropped on May 19th and it’s not an IDE refresh. It’s a full platform pivot from AI assisted coding, to multi agent orchestration as the core development model. If you’ve been keeping an eye on the Agentic coding race […]

Insider Brief A study from Virginia Tech found that AI image generators are better at representing large cities than smaller communities, raising questions about geographic bias as generative AI tools increasingly shape travel, planning and public perception. The research, published in Technology in Society, found that images generated by OpenAI’s DALL·E 2 more accurately reflected […]
In this tutorial, we implement the Langfuse (an open-source LLM engineering platform) pipeline for tracing, prompt management, scoring, datasets, and experiments. We build a complete workflow that works with either a real OpenAI key or a deterministic mock LLM, so we can understand every major Langfuse feature without depending on paid model access. We start […]
