Aaaand of course one guy did 1,055,658 lines of code in three months. If you do 1000 lines of code a day you'd have 90,000 lines of code.

I label thee "AI slopware", thank you very much :)

It's disclosed in the readme, so at least they are not hiding it:

This project was developed with significant assistance from AI tools. I mean, you can still blame me (Seth) for bugs, but I just wanted to mention it.

Note: All included textures/materials are real images taken by humans, not AI generated

I'm sorry but it doesn't matter one single iota to me who discloses it. The mere fact is what turns me off.

I still think it's disingenuous. Because this is not significant assistance by an LLM, but rather the human did some assistance where the LLM coded everything.

You can't even read and understand 10kLOC a day. I have worked as a DevOps engineer where one of my responsibilities was ensuring code quality and I could review maybe 100-1000LOC a day but the days where I read more than about 300 I noticed a significant rise in errors slipping through, and it physically and mentally exhausted me.

I read somewhere professional software devs usually write 17LOC per day on average, while deleting 40-50 and adding 60-70, while reading about 200-300. That's still a few multiples away from the 11kLOC/d (every day! Including weekends!) in this example.

What, you don't produce 11,000–12,000 LOC a day? Pleb.

Glad to see I'm not the only one to immediately reject any vibecoded stuff

Yeah. I really think AI coding is part of our future and LLMs are great tools, but vibe-coding is a sin which shouldn't be committed.
