Agreed. I vibe code very simple projects for my personal use. Projects I wouldn't have paid anyone to program for me, and I wouldn't have paid for any of them. They have been mostly personal training, run tracking, raspberry pi apps, etc. All personalized just for me.

Vibe coding actually inspired me to learn real programming just for fun. But I wouldn't want to design a consumer app or anything of that nature anyway. Too complicated and I don't like putting up with people's bullshit.

I do think AI will get good enough to do ultra complex apps though. In a very short while. Which is why many programmers feel threatened. I get it and sympathize. Meh, that's the way society advances. Plenty of people in other industries have had to worry about tech advances replacing them. We all just move on. It still sucks, but it sucked for us too.

Ultimately I think AI has more positives than negatives. I'm well aware that most of Lemmy disagrees! lol

I think for school-aged children, yes. For adults, meh, we can learn along side vibe coding. Which is what I'm doing.
