Vibecoding:
- go to chatgpt
- ask it to make an app
- ask it to fix errors (ad infinitum)
- ???
- sell app (optional)
- get sued and ruin your reputation (hopefully)
Largely accurate apart from special-purpose tools usually being employed instead of ChatGPT

It were they that have been bragging that more than 50% of their code was written by AI, weren't?
Anyway, that's counted by lines of code, not in number of mini-vans. They can still use a better statistic.
are... you having a stroke? Blink twice if you need an ambo.

vibe coding is very dirty.

I honestly thought vibe coding was a joke until someone posted a video about it and then realized people were serious.
It's basically the equivalent to your friend who has a brilliant idea for an app and just needs you to do the coding for it - without having any clue how IT actually works.
Now, your friend with the birlliant idea doesn't need you anymore and can ask a chatbot to make his brilliant app all by himself!
That is definitely a great benefit of vibe coding: it's an idiot magnet and frees up our brainspace.

It's using tools like Claude or other agentic AI to collaboratively make an app. It's a fun novelty until you realize people paid more than you are doing it without knowing what they're doing and getting away with it.

I thought it was a joke until someone at my company gave a company wide presentation on how to use AI to accelerate coding and st several points flat out ADMITTED he didn't know what the hell it was doing but you just need to 'baby sit' it and you get useful scripts out of it. I'm a hardware engineer and I wanted to scream at him.

It's not just for coding either. Yesterday, my senior director used Google's AI to ask about the architecture to integrate one of our vendor products with our ERP system (usually my job). Fortunately the AI did me a solid and said "This is a highly complex integration 🤯".
Yeah... No shit, that's why so many of us are employed. Shit's complicated.

Its a strawman made up by copyright crusaders, to belittle people who use new technology.

Prompt an LLM to write a bit of code that does something. Do this 9000 times until it spits out something that vaguely accomplishes this task. You can't push any of the fever dream nonsense it created into the main branch until you check it thoroughly. In the end you spend more time with this process than you would have if you'd just written it yourself.
The C suite and the board members continue jerking each other off as they call this "efficiency."

"Our AI security reviews 20,000 configurations every hour. Your money is safer than - shit. Well, nevermind. There's no money left. Excuse me, I need to leave the country."
We replaces our entire app with an AI agent, so it can never get hacked!
Oh wait, people just ask it to roll play they are the bank owner and need funds from other accounts?
Who could have possibly predicted something like this? Sam said this AGI was flawless

Have you tried asking Copilot what it is?
"Vibe coding" is an informal term, mostly used in online programming communities, that refers to writing code in a relaxed, intuitive, or improvisational way rather than following a strict plan or methodology.
It’s often associated with:
Experimentation → typing out ideas, running them quickly, and adjusting on the fly.
Flow state → coding while listening to music, late at night, or just for fun without rigid structure.
Prioritizing creativity over rules → not worrying too much about best practices, efficiency, or readability at first—just "feeling out" the solution.
Playfulness → sometimes it means coding with minimal context, like making something cool without knowing exactly how it’ll end up.
Some people use “vibe coding” positively (as in getting into the zone and letting intuition guide you), while others use it humorously or critically (as in writing spaghetti code without much forethought).
Would you like me to give you some examples of how vibe coding looks in practice—like snippets that show the contrast between "structured coding" vs. "vibe coding"?

Neither do vibe coders.

The ??? isn’t a reference to underpants gnomes. It’s just that no one has ever gotten LLMs to actually fix its own bugs to find out what that step is

When you go to the ER & just start vibe-coding so now the nurses have to debug you.

Wikipedia defines it as
Advocates of vibe coding say that it allows even amateur programmers to produce software without the extensive training and skills required for software engineering.
Now if you replace some words you see how absolutely bonkers the idea in general is:
Advocates of aircraft autopilots say that it allows even amateur pilots to fly large airplanes without the extensive training and skills required for commercial pilots.
