That is indeed the point. Moltbot reminds me a lot of the demon core experiment(s): Laughably reckless in hindsight, but ultimately also an artifact of a time of massive scientific progress.

Serious question: What do you gain from people not being able to vibe code?

Not who you're responding to, but I'm not a huge fan of vibe coding for 2 reasons: I don't want to use crappy software, and I don't want to inherit crappy software.

Same, but I've both used and inherited crappy software long before LLMs and agents were a thing.

I suppose it's going to be harder to identify obvious slop at a first glance, but fundamentally, what changes?
