31 Days of Vibe Coding - Day #25: Refactoring AI Code

There is an AI code paradox. The faster you ship, the more you accumulate code that's hard to maintain. AI optimizes for "make it work," not "make it understandable."

But here's the thing: AI is also good at refactoring. The same tool that created the mess can help clean it up. You just have to ask.

This is the thing I find myself in a recursive loop about. Ask AI to do something. Don’t like it? Ask AI to change it. Want it documented? Ask AI to document it. With a little persistence, you can get exactly what you’re looking for.
