I thought vibe coding was when you don’t know what the code does yourself, you just make AI do it and review it without reviewing or understanding it yourself.
This list will be way too long in the next years. Coding with the help of an LLM is useful and allows you to go to the solution very fast. If you know how to code, vibe coding is great.
just another year bro, trust me just another year and ai will do everything! yes i know i said this last year and the year before but this time it’s for real bro!
unless the ai companies can magically solve the poor code quality, the unethical training data, the environmental impacts, the deskilling of developers, and the strong dependency on themselves for your coding, all this in a year, allow me to doubt you.
The list is genuinely stupid and lacks any nuance. See my other comments in this thread but this is sort of thing is where people who are anti-AI are shooting themselves in the foot and making the general public write off any genuine criticism as ridiculous.
Most of those projects allow AI to be used in the dev process and that’s it. That list includes projects that just document that things like AI line completion and similar can be used but code is still reviewed by at least one skilled human maintainer
The list combines those projects in with projects that are entirely AI written (vibe coded in the actual original sense) which just muddies the water on what’s actually problematic and not
Damn the repo also has AGENTS.MD and CLAUDE.md files, I really didn’t think systemd is vibecoded

That was the origin of the term. Now it’s when anyone uses those same tools and techniques regardless of their skill level.
I think the term has a lost a lot in the process then
There’s no nuance in the anti-ai discussions. Even breathing next to an LLM makes it slop.
If you wish to increase your sadness and dread a little more, have a look at this list

vlc and mpv? python?? the mesa drivers??? LINUX???
oh we’re so fucked
Or people should take it as a slap of reality that AI has gotten good enough to code because actual developers are using it.
Give it another year and this won’t even be a discussion anymore as every programmer will be using assisted coding in some manner.

The code quality is fine with the right prompts and guardrails, and companies don’t care about the other stuff.
