Vibe coder gives up on using generative #AI after realising the mountain of technical debt it created

Recently I talked to a close friend of mine, who began #VibeCoding not long ago. He isn't that much into programming and just wants his ideas to become reality. The tasks he wanted to implement were quite simple, so he was very happy with the quick progress he experienced with having an #LLM generate the code for him.
I can relate to that to a certain extent. Yes, for simple, tutorial level tasks LLMs generate code, that works. Most of the time. As soon as things get a little more complicated or leave the beaten path, they drop out and you enter the stage of #DoomPrompting, where you constantly confront the LLM with its faulty output, whereupon it apologises, promises to correct itself, and yields a new solution – which turns out to be broken in a different way.
1/2
I just saw an all-caps instruction file that someone uses to 'instruct' an LLM to help with coding, and it's just "don't hallucinate", "check your work", "don't say you did something when you didn't" with multiple exclamation marks.
So, basically the whole 'vibe coding,' or having "AI" "help" with coding just devolves into shouting at your computer.
Which reminded me of something, and then it hit me!
¿Qué podría ir mal si se escribe código usando LLMs, y luego se revisa también con LLMs?
Es un poco como revisarte a ti mismo. 
There's one metric I would LOVE to see. The ratio between vibed apps and how many of those apps people are happy to pay for.

I came. I saw. I GitHubbed. After 'vibe coding' (prompting?!) my way to 30 single-page HTML apps over the past month, I thought... why not just put 'em on GitHub, too? So, I 'vibe coded' a tool to do 'em all in a batch. Easy peasy. Am I a dev now?
Praise the Omnissiah for Cursor's YOLO mode, that damn thing will send a lot of business towards people like me.
The future isn’t AI replacing devs — it’s one engineer managing 10 autonomous AI agents, each coding in parallel.
Cursor 1.0 takes a step in that direction.
Here’s what’s new:

Vibe coding only really works if you don't care at all about the code you're generating, which only happens if you're doing something completely inconsequential. But why bother doing something inconsequential at all?
Empfinde die Wortschöpfung #vibecoding als solches schon als dämlich - Nutze LLMs in der Softwareentwicklung, aber vor allem weil ich es cool finde, dass das geht was ich an StarTrek so cool fand: In natürlichsprachlichem, dialogorientiertem Prozess zwischen Mensch & Maschine Fragestellungen strukturiert zerlegen und dann gemeinsam Lösungen erarbeiten. Was die "vibes" dabei sein sollen erschließt sich mir nicht. Quatschwörter in Tech sind idr Zeichen dafür dass man egtl nicht weiss was man tut
Here's my prediction.
pt.1
With all these "Vibe coding" platforms we will start to see an explosion of new startups popping up, built by "non devs". They will look good on the surface. But they will be filled with bugs and inefficiencies, and some even harmfull to use. Don't be surprised to hear about security leaks / breaches from these either.
