Have you worked with a professional architect. Cost adds up fast, and you get 1-2 iterations?

I'd love to work and vibecode the house to my full liking, assuming that the agent harness will take care of all the nonfunctional things (stable design, zoning etc). Same for car if I could customize it I would.

(I definitely don't like the ramifications of it on the economy/jobs, but the above are pure consumer wins, no doubt)

Instead of deadcode, it'll leave you with a few extra secret rooms that have no doors or windows :)

The reason you wouldn't want this is cost. The cost of building a house is marginally affected by designing it with an AI agent. Most of the cost is bricks, etc -- material.
