Vibe coding is too risky to offload to serious projects, and on the non serious projects, is detrimental to your coding skills to not actually practice writing the code.
It might save you a lot of time, useful for prototyping ideas.

>>106751852For some niche shit it's also invaluable. I've ran across things with shit documentation where AI was able to answer my questions that were nowhere in documentation. Of course you still gotta deal with hallucinations and go through everything it gives you.
i expect to have retirement money in a decade so it probably won't affect me either way (i'll keep working as long as it makes sense) but i only see this going 2 ways: one, somehow the tech improves to the point where only real big corps like ms and amazon still have dedicated programmers (think what happened to dbas) or two, there's too much shit code that needs to be fixed and the demand for actual programmers increases/better pay etc
>>106751942>I've ran across things with shit documentationthen its better to just read the sourcecode if its on github
>>106751977and in either case there will be less juniors which probably means better salaries for whoever keeps working in the field
>>106747856I was told by tech sales guy at Microsoft that if I wanted a job at MS I should start using github copilot to write as much of my code as possible because they literally require it there.
