    I'm one of those people giving a chance to assisted coding, or marketing-familiar name "vibe-coding", for blind people to create new systems and components covering their specific needs. But my position doesn't mean I'm in favor of passively accepting all what the bot extracts and builds for us.
    The fact a bot builds from human's effort without permission is a huge objection, but there is one more matter in needs of most attentions: too much enthusiasm creates more damages than benefits.
    Let's tell the truth: a non-skilled, sighted or blind, can create a component which ruins what already work, to make something else work.
    And yes, even a sighted can create (in complete good faith) a component for NVDA screen reader, if I try to say "NVDA is missing this".
    Just talk, and in 24 hours you have a solution? That would be to good to be true, in fact it isn't. It takes hours, months, of testing because the bot is not a full-knowledge source, it must be "manipulated".

    I'd prefer with no doubt, a world with better programmers, better/easier ways to get skilled so that we can even cover our needs on our own.
    But we live in this world, assisted coding is here, and I do all my best to invite people learning what it really means.
    I could do miracles, let's call them, using my background to create new "vibe-coded" software pieces. But I'm maybe too careful, who knows, and feel that I'm in the less evil direction. Use enthusiasm, use tools, but taking steps only when I know what I do.
