Well, yeah. It also took 100x the time to write.
Vibe coding is only really useful for a coder. Because you can understand and correct it.

Shocker.
what's funny is that this was predicted to be that way even before AI-generated code became an option. Hell, I remember doing an assessment back in early 2023 and literally every domain expert i talked with said this thing - it has its use, but purely supplemental and you won't use it on some fundamental because the clean-up will take more time than was preserved. Counterproductive is the word.
I couldn't program a single line of code if my life depended on it, and I could have told you that.
Not if Yandev has anything to say about it.
