vibe coders discover "coding"
-
Oh man, imagine how crazy things will get once management realizes they can stop paying all the vibe coders and just let the expert human coders at it from the start! They can even let them use the leftover AI licenses for shits and giggles.

Just create a new AI that's specialized in cleaning up vibe code.

If they only knew how to actually do the work, they could just ask it to do it right in the first place.
Make me a page display this data.
Now go back and put all that spaghetti code into reusable functions and use them.
I think it generally tries to take the path of least compute power first saving money on their behalf.

next theyll invent rudimentary bartering systems

An acquaintance of mine has basically been doing this for years in the form of slop code written by the cheapest outsourcing firms on earth who cannot comprehend rudimentary requirements and have no concept of coding standards. But management insists this is the most cost effective way of doing things, rather than just having a competent group of qualified people do it right from the start.
It seems as depressing as you'd think.
This seems to happen in a lot of IT in general.
Your software, db's and infrastructure ends up a mess, but it's so cheap they can pay 3x the number of people to keep sweeping all of the issues under the rug. -

Wait until they figure out how senior engineers learned all this stuff.

Actually... yes. This was back when "source control" meant keeping the code on an extra floppy in a dusty desk drawer, and "security" meant throwing an extra lock on the office door, and "looking stuff up" meant trying to find useful books at the local bookstore. It was awful.

Like every function was written by a different guy almost.
Considering how LLMs work, you might be right.
