For some reason miss two important points:

1) The AI code maintainence question - who would maintain the AI generated code 2) The true cost of AI. Once the VC/PE money runs out and companies charge the full cost, what would happen to vibe coding at that point ?

The main benefit of YC startups is not that they have 10x engineers but rather that they are starting from scratch; hence, the AI works well in a greenfield project. Enterprise customers are a totally different ball game. Ninety percent is legacy critical code, and some decisions are not made to optimize the dev time.

Also, for Y Combinator startup, let say that the AI introduces a bug. Since there are no customers, no one cares. Now imagine the same AI introduces a bug in the flight reservation system that was written 20 years ago.

The competition for big LLM AI companies is not other big LLM AI companies, but rather small LLM AI companies with good enough models. This is a classic innovator dilemma. For example, I can imagine a team of cardiologists creating a fine tune LLM model.

The question is what priced in, not what is publicly known. Buy put if you think that the market does not know the above reasoning.

The article fails to describe the core agent algorithm. I.e. how does the agent decide what to code ? If the agent did coded something, how does the agent decide that the code is correct ? (Ecepsically if the core model is based on auto complete and lacks any logic).

Like if the agent decides to search for a file X on task Y why file X and not file Z ?

So don't be fooled. The cloud computing business model is a lot like a gym. I.e. they already have the capacity in place, so they need warm bodies. A lot of those cloud ramp up, is in the form of rebates or giving money to customers to move between clouds.
