A lot of the arguments people use against vibe coding sounds a lot like "You shouldn't use a high-level programming language unless you understand the assembly it compiles to."

Except for the bit where LLM behaviors aren’t deterministic, but those of most compilers in most situations are.

And before anyone says that LLVM in version X produced wildly different assembly from version Y, it is not remotely comparable to what LLMs do, not even close.

Yep, but if you ask me to solve the same problem at different times I probably wouldn't write the same code either.

We aren’t comparing humans to code.
