Vibe Coders

vibe “coders” don’t know jack shit on what they’re doing, quite literally anyone off the street could qualify as a vibe coder, so this is what you’re comparing to

the companies that embrace this garbage are only hurting themselves

keep your head up and keep doing what you’re doing

Roblox’s response would be like: “We will add that texture stuff
 but first we are adding price floors to experiences as that is more important lol. In the coming weeks, we are adding an exciting new dynamic pricing system for all developers to get profits from! If too many players play one game the price of entry will go up for new players that haven’t bought the game before. This will help our servers not blow up from too much players because they would have to pay.”

That would be crazy though, game price floors would kill roblox so lets hope they don’t read this silly joke lol

I don’t understand why the norm for the Devforum should be to stomp all over optional AI features. If you don’t like AI because it prevents ‘imagination’, promotes ‘lifelessness’, or whatever; don’t use it. Nobody is forcing you to. Make not using it part of the marketing for your project.

The goal with all of the new AI features is to lower the barrier of entry to building games. Not everyone knows how to code, model, make textures, etc. and to shorten the time from new-player-with-idea to finished game, Roblox is trying to help by offering ways to skip certain learning pathways with an obvious trade-off in quality. What Roblox gets from it being easier for people to make games is obviously more customers, more games on the platform and therefore more money. But this does not discount the use of AI itself. Roblox is a for-profit company if you are upset with them for trying to turn a profit you’re completely missing the plot here.

Now, I’m not vouching for the quality of these features - they’re all pretty bad. This release is the best we’ve gotten yet, and it’s really just outsourcing the work to someone else. But the effectiveness of using AI in the game production pipeline itself isn’t the discussion here.

As someone else said it is still up to the players to decide what’s worth their time, regardless of ‘how’ it was made.

Thank you for reading my poorly constructed midnight thoughts.

Fair point!

Also fair point. It would be better if developers actually learned how to do stuff because when you are skilled you can do things quickly, but it does skip a learning curve.

Very good point, but Roblox needs to hope the AI can help guide the developer to making a game pass and then the AI knowing how to script it for even more profit, AI can make some fake methods sometimes.

It’s gonna be sad if a game gets really popular and the AI can’t fix a game breaking bug and then all the players can’t play the game because the developer has no idea how to do anything on there own. But you are right, a 8 year old isn’t going to care if it is AI or not.

These are some nice points for a late night response. I don’t agree with what Roblox is doing but if it’s for profit then it immediately makes sense. It feels wrong that talent people that love doing what they do get there work taken over by a bot that can soon do the same skill level stuff in seconds. Your points are valid, I just don’t completely agree with the way they want to make money.

Really cool. I hope Claude is a stopgap for a better, open source solution being worked on. An AI builder - not modeller - would be so useful for placeholder art.

Roblox how about you actually work on stuff we want, such as optimization, theres a ton of stuff that can affect your rendering outside of what even is being rendered in the game, make roblox playable and fun for everyone, such as a custom graphics settings, like render distance or shadow quality, and not limit us to 10 bars of graphics.

And if people starts using this ai stuff, its most likely gonna be really unoptimized since the devs havent done anything

let the ai features go and fix actual developer features that are half baked

useless update i aint gonna lie

we should all as a collective start naming our mesh files random garbage so the training data is left at a trainwreck

& scripting a word scrambler to encrypt/decrypt module names n’ whatnot could be handy in any experiences with data sharing enabled to achieve the same effect on the programming side. same would be done with comments in a script
I can imagine someone creating a custom explorer alternative that has this built in

I don’t have much problem with AI under certain conditions, but I refuse to contribute to training one

you guys shouldnt be focusing on ai. its just deterring new devs from actually learning how to code/model/etc. focus on optimisation, adding stuff we actually want, fixing 10+ YEAR OLD BUGS or making the api documentation actually understandable so new devs can actually figure out what theyre doing. it shouldnt take 3 days and 2 people on top of the api for me to learn how to use a simple buffer and editable images, with the api documentation being no use at all

most good ai’s just read dev forums and roblox docs and also know lua so they wouldnt train on the encrypt stuff

just like to say ai can read and understand my mistakes and bug fix faster then i can useful tbf rojo and vs studio plugin and oh there this bug and in 30’s its fixed it without me doing anything pretty nice making full systems isnt easy and unlsss you know errors and how to code ai slop wont be a issue

why are people still whining about being replaced by AI? who is this actually replacing?
