I have tons of acquaintances like that. They vibe-code and think they've gained an advantage over those who don't know how to vibe-code But there's nothing to know — take a 3-hour course, pay 200$ a day for Claude, and there you are, a vibe-coder.

It's just that most skilled developers find it disgusting, because the AI spits out code that doesn't work the way it should, and it all turns into the routine of "threw in a prompt, waited, reviewed, repeated." — only those who were crappy programmers are happy about this.

And on top of that, these characters deny the fact that agents are evolving too, and meat proxies will soon be unnecessary — or maybe already are: https://x.com/tunahorse21/status/2117353858544660585
