What have you been working on and AI is replacing you?

Hacker News - Fri, 02/13/2026 - 3:33pm

Really guys, I have a tough time believing AI is really replacing any serious developer.

It still screws up even simple tasks, and it often takes more time to accurately describe what you want than just writing the code.

And most importantly: it cannot understand complex contexts.

I am working on a corporate product that is essentially a big monolith, with much of the logic being complex because of legal reasons (the product is about real estate), and some bad past design decisions.

The features I am currently working on cannot be vibe-coded, because no AI can understand the context. And I have worked with similar projects in the past -I know that corporate software of monstrous complexity is usual.

The same applies to a caching library I am developing on and off on my spare time: I asked Claude to make some improvements, and it didn't even compile. The result was a disaster.

An actual question, to all of you who 'mourn your craft' and LLMs replacing you: what on earth have you been working on?

Am I the only one who doesn't see LLMs replacing us anywhere soon? Or am I just very lucky?
