The problem is that if you don’t understand the code you’re taking a risk shipping that code.

There’s a reason why most vibe coded apps I’ve seen leak keys and have basic security flaws all over the place.

If you don’t know what you’re doing and you’re generating code at scale that you can’t manage you’re going to have a bad time.

The models are trained on all the slop we had to ship under time pressure and swore we’d fix later, etc. They’re not going to autocomplete the good code. They’re going to autocomplete the most common denominator code.

I don’t agree that design is cheap. Maybe for line-of-business software that doesn’t matter much.
