Does anyone have a link to a video that uses Claude Code to produce clean robust code that solves a non trivial problem (ie not tic tac toe or a landing page) more quickly than a human programmer can write? I don’t want a “demo”, I want a livestream from an independent programmer unaffiliated with any AI company and thus not incentivised to hype.

I want the code to have subsequently been deployed in production and demonstrably robust, without additional work outside of the livestream.

The livestream should include code review, test creation, testing, PR creation.

It should not be on a greenfield project, because nearly all coding is not.

I want to use Claude and I want to be more productive, but my experience to date is that for writing code beyond autocomplete AI is not good enough and leads to low quality code that can’t be maintained, or else requires so much hand holding that it is actually less efficient than a good programmer.

There are lots of incentives for marketing at the grassroots level. I am totally open to changing my mind but I need evidence.

I actually don't think I've ever had AI solve a non-trivial problem by itself. I do find it useful but I always have to give it the breakthrough which it can then implement.
