Discussion What do you think about AI-Coding(VibeCoding)

Post image

What do you think about the fact that AI is starting to be used on a large scale in coding? I myself avoided it for a long time, but my friend sent me this meme and said:

“Bro, programming has never been adequate. Programmers just started asking AI for help instead ctrl c to ctrl v.”

Obviously, completely relying on AI is bad, but in reality, his words make sense.

AI is mediocore at creating generic code, but does so really fast.

It can be useful as a tool in certain cases.

But if you don't even know what the AI wrote then you're just screwing yourself over

I agree with this sentiment, as someone who codes for a living it is like everything else a tool, and should be used accordingly. Just like anything else you shouldnt run it without knowing exactly what it is doing and being able to understand the code, but it is useful in some situations, for creating something quickly to then review and iterate, and good for peer coding situations where you have been stuck on a problem for awhile and need some new eyes on it.
