There is definitely something of value here, but these products still output poor quality work preventing me from adding it to my workflow yet. Also, M$, are you really going to hire any of these vibe coders you are creating? Just curious. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don鈥檛 just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) 路 CNCF 路 0 upvotes 路 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) 路 CNCF 路 1 upvotes 路 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) 路 CNCF 路 0 upvotes 路 0 comments --- Tags: [#ai](https://daily.dev/tags/ai), [#devtools](https://daily.dev/tags/devtools), [#github](https://daily.dev/tags/github), [#microsoft](https://daily.dev/tags/microsoft), [#vscode](https://daily.dev/tags/vscode) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/vs-code-microsoft-with-the-double-strike-against-cursor--zrgpzp3uu)
