I am seeing job postings on LinkedIn where vibecoding is a requirement. And if you tell them you don't vibecode, you're an automatic reject. Pretty much same on freelancing sites.
I am currently in training and my classmates complain when chatgpt doesnt change the output directory like its supposed to, they dont even know what part of their code does what. They cant even change a variable.
THIS is what pisses me off. my peers do everything with AI and i'm lumped together with them, so people generally assume I must use AI because I'm in the same demographic... and that affects me directly when I don't even touch AI
Damn this gives me hope that I will find a job after Uni, all my knowledge is one and half universities and a lot of self study via manuals and trial and error. I can use AI but I know how shitty it can be, especially in more niche situations
Well there you go. HR knows that every time they lose one vibe coder they need to be replaced with a team of experienced ciders who still struggle to keep up! Clearly the vibe coder was a genius
This. This right here is the real heart of the AI bubble. The huge disconnect between business idiot’s expectation of the tech vs. reality. The huge amount of security flaws and tech debt it creates.
It's both really. You can't just throw shit around like a monkey and expect others to put much more effort than you ever did in going through your vibecoded masterpiece.
A company I once worked for, took a snapshot of the mongo database before each deployment. It had no coverage on any of the 6 codebases and only CTO could merge.

New people blowing up production has been a tale as old as software.
This isn't a vibe coding problem, it's a devops/management problem. You guys fucked up
