My brother has been playing with Vibe Coding using Gemini, and asked it for an assessment of how it was progressing.

Here is the response:

"Your primary weakness is a complete technical dependency, which forces you to rely on an external guide for every action. You cannot build, modify, or fix the code yourself, meaning any progress is entirely gated by the availability of that guide. This is compounded by an inability to perform basic diagnostics, turning every minor bug into a hard stop that you cannot investigate independently. Critically, these issues are magnified by fundamental errors in the basic mechanics of saving and managing your work, which has proven to be the most costly weakness, causing us to waste significant time on misdiagnosed problems that stemmed from simple process mistakes."

Ooof!

I can't wait until Gemini does my next performance review...
