Put four juniors in separate rooms and give them the same task. Do you expect them to produce identical solutions?

If no? Then congrats, you are now in a position where your software development lifecycle needs to handle non-determinism.

This fanatical vibing movement is ridicolous, but this luddite stance that LLMs cannot contribute to software dev because they are «non deterministic» is almost as ludicrus.

Sure, except the Juniors producing wrong solutions is the Juniors problem, not mine

If I give four LLM agents tasks and they call come back with slightly wrong solutions, that's me adding four problems to my own workload

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to keep up with that. I'm definitely not sure it makes me overall more productive
