It describes the act of using an AI as the primary method of writing code, as you’re going by the “vibes” you get instead of an actual understanding of what the code does.
When I last tried it, it was pretty great actually but you have to already be really good at coding. It looks way easier than it is but it’s super easy to just make complete gibberish. The trick is to break everything down into small chunks of things that have been done already.
If you try anything new, anything using obscure APIs it will just not work.
I did not know this is what “vibe” referred to. That’s completely the opposite of what you would (should) want to do if you’re going to write code with AI assistance.
Using AI to write code for you (through prompting only), as opposed to earlier LLM coding which would complete the code you were actively writing in your editor.
You are vibe coding if you delegate the implementation details of a problem to the AI.
There are varying degrees of vibe coding as you increasingly become more hands off and let the AI run unsupervised. Some people actually queue up messages and give full computer permissions so the AI will keep coding for hours without having to check on it.
What is vibe coding? Is it some new bullshit viral term?

What? Must be great results.
Yes. The Cybersecurity implications are… unfortunate.
For anyone who has put off locking their credit reports down…Well, I certainly would get that done.

As if “vibe” alone as slang weren’t bad enough.
