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.

If you're referencing the video, I didn't watch it. It was a serious question because I don't know whether using LLMs for any large scale coding task is a (terrible but real) thing or an elaborate joke. It's hard to tell with some of the hideously stupid bullshit that has been happening in the last few years (e.g. NFTs).

Lol I didn't watch it at first either. I was gonna ask you "wtf is vibe coding?" but then figured I should watch the video first.

Best I can tell is you put on some mood lighting, glasses, and music. Then have AI build a program for you. The guy in the video legitimately thinks this is a solution for getting rid of 80% of your software development team.
