Vibe Coders might be serious, but I cannot take them seriously, especially when they say "It is a must-have skill". (www.youtube.com)

Just to clarify, I google a lot while coding, but one thing I learnt from my engineering degree is that is there is no 'best' solution.

I don’t. Like I said, it needs a lot of tweaking and the only time I have it do more than laying down the base for a function is at the beginning of a new project that’s not too important (like personal projects). I end up rewriting nearly everything anyway but it helps with getting over that initial overwhelmed feeling when staring in a blank file

different strokes for different folks. I enjoy a fresh clean project that I can start with. I hate picking up someone else's mess so using AI in that manner completely goes against what I enjoy as a dev.

it originally sounded to me like you were having AI generate the hierarchy and project structure, but it sounds like you're just using it to generate file templates.

Thanks for the insight.
