'When AI leader Andrej Karpathy coined the phrase "vibe coding" for just
letting AI chatbots do their thing when programming, he added, "It's not too
bad for throwaway weekend projects … but it's not really coding — I just see
stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy-paste stuff, and it mostly works."
There were lots of red flags in his comments, but that hasn't stopped people
using vibe coding for real work.
Recently, vibe coding bit Jason Lemkin, trusted advisor to SaaStr, the
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) business community, in the worst possible way. The
vibe program, Replit, he said, went "rogue during a code freeze and shutdown
and deleted our entire database."
In a word: Wow. Just wow.'
