A significant number of developers and businesses are going to have an absolutely brutal rude awakening in the not too distant future.
You can build things this way, and they may work for a time, but you don’t know what you don’t know (and experience teaches you that you only find most stuff by building/struggling; not sipping a soda while the AI blurts out potentially secure/stable code).
The hubris around AI is going to be hard to watch unwind. What the moment is I can’t predict (nor do I care to), but there will be a shift when all of these vibe code only folks get cooked in a way that’s closer to existential than benign.
Good time to be in business if you can see through the bs and understand how these systems actually function (hint: you won’t have much competition soon as most people won’t care until it’s too late and will “price themselves out of the market”).
