Sharing a viral thread, mmjukic argues AI skeptics can no longer ask "where is all the great software we were promised": hackers have vibe-coded a free open-source Photoshop alternative and got GTA V running on an iPhone — "it just took hackers to make it, not corporations."
The quoted post highlights an even wilder feat: someone vibe-coded an Nvidia GPU driver for Mac, prompting jokes that Arch Linux on iPhone is next. A snapshot of AI-assisted coding pushing into bottom-layer software once thought impossible for hobbyists.
