It’s cool that we can remix code this rapidly.
It is also telling that things that were already working reliably on Pi work (Doom), and things that were hard on Pi do not (sound has been difficult lately).
AI is getting better and better at remixing in mostly (but not entirely) non-harmful ways. (Notice that networking was lost, in spite of being a solved problem on Raspberry Pi hardware.)
Once again, this AI output is both impressive as all heck, while simultaneously objectively worse than searching for “Raspberry Pi OS” and downloading the first thing I find. (Edit: Until there’s enough of these Vibe OSes to poison my search results, anyway!)
Edit: Sounds like I may have discovered a completely separate developer that live streamed creation of their vibe coded OS!
If I had a nickel for every time someone did that…well I wound have ten cents.
But you have to admit it’s weird that it has happened twice.
Neat. From https://github.com/kaansenol5/VibeOS

That’s a different project…
Oh! Yeah, I rarely watch along with video links. I thought I had successfully found a way to read along. Oh well. Still neat.
