As a developer building a custom 64-bit OS completely from scratch on bare-metal C and assembly, I feel your pain to 100%. Prompting an AI to write a kiddy "Word clone" or boilerplate web apps is the ultimate passion killer. It makes software engineering feel like monitoring a factory assembly line. The only way I found to escape this AI-slop burnout is shifting your focus entirely to low-level or complex domains where AI models constantly halluzinate and fail. When you orchestrate raw hardware registers, write custom USB-HID or xhci stacks and handle direct MMU paging without any framework safety net, AI stops being a driver and becomes a basic typing assistant. You can't vibe-code a stable OS kernel 'cause if you don't understand every single byte in the RAM, the CPU will just triple-fault and instant-reboot. Don't let corporations turn you iinto a prompt manager. Switch to systems programming, compiler dev, or bare-metal embedded stuff. Go back to where you have to understand the machine, not just nudge a model. That's where the real joy of building lives. If you need such a project, try to write a bios-like system for microcontroller like the esp32 'cause there you have to save resources for developers who want to write an os for your bios-like embedded system. No AI just you and the hardware.

Yes true point. But why use Java? I mean you said another language that is an alternative for Java.

Starting a startup is a great idea. However, your concerns are certainly valid. But investors will invest as long as what you’re doing is worth investing in—they generally don’t care whether you use AI or not; it’s more about the quality of your work and how much money investors can reasonably expect to make from your startup. It’s like borrowing money: investors see the value of your startup and invest with the intention of either getting their money back in full after a certain period at an agreed-upon interest rate—so-called debt securities—or acquiring shares in your startup that give them voting rights in your decisions and a certain percentage of your revenue. Either way, as soon as your startup gains value, larger investors will come on board. The value of your startup depends on how many securities you issue or on your revenue. Bottom line: Investors will generally come as long as you stick to not using AI and your work is of high quality—which I have no doubt about based on your description. Good luck with your idea.

yeah that's a true point. But that also means that a human can't code it either. except the person comes from that time so the person has to be over 40 years old and can code or can prompt in the "right" way that the ai can reproduce this.

Vibe coding sounds easy 'cause the ai makes all the work. but it's much easier to code per hand because ai can make mistakes that a human don't see. also you have to prompt in the right way. if you don't prompt "right" the ai makes a thing you don't want you can write the ai "write me a word clone" and the ai gives you a simple texteditor code where you can write text and save it but you haven't hypermarker, ruler, image inserts, video inserts, link previews, etc. so you have to describe the ai exactly what you want into the least detail. thats very complex so most developers don't vibe code or vibe code only easy parts or complex parts that takes usually months to develope but a ai can do this in 10 seconds if you prompt "right". usually you use prebuild projects.
