Everyone seems to have different ways to deal with AI for coding and have different experiences. But Armin's comment quoted in the article is spot on. I have seen a friend do exactly the same thing, vibe coded an entire product hooked to Cursor over three months. Filled with features no one uses, feeling very good about everything he built. Ultimately it's his time and money, but I would never want this in my company. While you can get very far with vibe coding, without the guiding hands and someone who understands what's really going on with the code, it ends up in a disaster.

I use AI for the mundane parts, for brainstorming bugs. It is actually more consistent than me in covering corner cases, making sure guard conditions exist etc. So I now focus more on design/architecture and what to build and not minutea.
