There are many HN users who are opposed to LLM.
Some of them are fundamentalists, and no amount of reason will reach them (read the comments on the Ghibli-style images to get a sample), others are opposed for very self-interested reasons: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his income depends on his not understanding it"
Yesterday, I vibe coded a DNS server in python from scratch in half a day (!) and it works extremely well after spending a few minutes on manually improving a specific edge case for reverse DNS using AAAA records: dig -x requests use the exploded form in the ip6.arpa, while I think it's better for the AAAA entries to keep using the compressed form, and I wanted to generate the reverse algorithmically from AAAA and A records.
Just ignore them, as your approach is sound: I have experience creating, curating and improving datasets with LLMs.
Like vibe coding, it works very well if you know what you are doing: here, you just have to use statistics to leverage the non deterministic aspects of AI in your favor.
Good luck with your app!

This is true of so very many things involving computers (and tools in general, really) and LLMs are no exception. Just like any tool, "knowing what you are doing" is the really important part, but so many folks are convinced that these "AI" things can do the thinking part for them, and it's just not the case (yet). You gotta know what you're doing and how to properly use the tool to avoid a lotta the "foot-guns" and get the most benefit outta these things.
