In general, slop hucksters also fail to understand the limitations of the tools they work with.

"Vibe coders" are the slop hucksters of code, or at least, those who wish to turn an entire vibe coded prompt into an unmaintainable codebase.

Step back a decade. If someone were to tell you, "in ten years we could have AI automate things so that everyone's lives are enriched." What story would you tell?

Most likely: automation will take away drudgery, so that people can focus on their artwork, their music, their code, their creative pursuits.

It's no wonder there's such a backlash.
