Another point goes to opencode in this case.

Chat, I'm trying to use @github CoPilot in Agent mode with @OpenRouterAI. No matter which model I choose, it works for "Ask" mode, but gets filtered for "Agent" mode, even for requests like "Hi" (Reason: Filtered by Responsible AI Service). Any ideas?. /cc: @code.

(10) AI will dehumanize software development in particular, and society in general. BUT: AI is just a symptom and a cultural evolution of this process.

(9) AI will make us more productive. BUT: If a chatbot can take 80% of our job, this job is just bullshit.

(8) AI will make software development faster. BUT: Instead of writing code, we will spend more time on prompt engineering.

(7) AI will allow everyone to create software. BUT: So has Cobol, SQL, low-code, and no-code, right? Right?.

(6) We lose joy in coding when AI does it for us. BUT: We can automate the boring parts and focus on the creative aspects of software engineering and learn new things on the way.

(5) Developers won't pay for tools. BUT: We spend easily on test credits at various AI providers. We just don't trust ready made opinionated tools and their crappy experience. We know most software is crappy because we create it.

(4) AI will replace us developers. BUT: It can only produce meaningful code if chunked down to one story point tasks. These jobs are in danger, always have been.

(3) AI can't produce high quality code and often hallucinates. BUT: Our requirements are shitty, always have been. We as developers need to become better product owners.

(2) We, the older developers, often complain that software engineering is becoming unnecessarily complex. BUT: We've just become older, and our ability to learn new things has diminished.

Here are some thoughts about AI and software engineering. (1) We see that AI decreases our brain's capacity by and large. BUT: With coding assistants, we can deep dive into learning new languages, concepts, paradigms. 👇.

Here are some interesting findings on the journey:. - Claude Sonnet 4 came up with the right ideas for the job (i.e. using FoldingRangeProvider).- it struggled to apply nested styling .- AI seems to use a "scratch" pad (created tons of .md files).- All in all, very cool. 🔗👇.

That was a fun idea to vibe code. I used GitHub CoPilot with Claude Sonnet 4 and had it working within 2 hours without any experience in VSCode extension development. Full article follows
