This! And vibe-coded solutions usually will implement stuff your project already has in it, instead of reusing what already exists. Or Claude will massively over-engineer something that could be collapsed to 30 lines or something.
Can confirm, I asked it to write a unit test for a small component, it wrote tons of code that parsed and validated some JSON configuration (a theme file) instead of just the unit under test. I just wrote it myself instead of try and argue with it.
Maybe the AI was too clever for its own good? Have AI coding assistants evolved from junior (naive but alright) to medior (overly complicated and complete)?
