The reason is that humans are expensive, and they don't want to spend their time programming simply if they can get an AI to give them a functioning project with much less time and effort - at least, commercially.
who cares if it works or is maintained or maintainable or secure or does what it's supposed to or works after an update anyway
Look, if it only cost half as much to ship it, then it will only cost half as much to rewrite it, right?
That's basically the logic for malpraxis, so this will end with the vibe code using companies (or small owners) being sued.
And I am gonna laugh and laugh and laugh.
That tracks so well that I'm sure it will happen.
Meta, Microsoft, and Google will still be worth trillions, Nvidia will be worth as much as all of them combined, and an entire wave of entrepreneurs taught to be dependent on these behemoths will be ruined.
Sounds like the system is working as designed better than ever.
