      Stupid term for when people who don’t know how to program ask AI to generate code for them which they have no expertise to actually validate.

      Edit: It took 20 minutes, but I finally found the poster child for vibe coding (time well spent):

      It’s when people try to have LLM’s generate code and then try to assemble the pieces produced into semi-functional, usually really bad, software I think.

        And I think “vibe” means that they have no experience with programming so they can’t read the code they copy.
