Just to clarify, I google a lot while coding, but one thing I learnt from my engineering degree is that is there is no 'best' solution.

I saw that my Jetbrains All Product Pack subscription also includes their AI assistant and in Go it's really able to write and refactor things in a useful manner. But I think a large part is that I've been programming for 30 years and I am able to tell the thing exactly what I want and can mention things I do not want and also spot issues. Right now I don't see how they can manage a complete codebase, which I understand vibe coding to be. There are just so many things than can (subtly) go wrong and AI at the moment is not able to help with that. But they also keep getting better, so who knows where we'll be in a year or two.

We will always have the same problem with computers doing what we tell them, but also not doing what we are not smart enough to tell them.
