How Vibe Coding Became Industry Standard

> your competition with AI-enabled devs is shipping at 5x your velocity with a similar quality bar.

Really? Show me the evidence where companies doing vibe coding have shipped five times as much software as before. If vibe code were really the amazing leap its proponents claim, why are we not being absolutely flooded with new software, new features, new ideas?

Oh by the way, Spore is a company that makes money selling AI.

maxprehoda•4mo ago
Fair points. Though at this stage, the entire software industry has bets on AI - from Microsoft to every YC startup. We're all talking our book to some degree. But would you argue that AI isn't increasing developer productivity?

Yes I would. There is a study https://metr.org/blog/2025-07-10-early-2025-ai-experienced-o...

> These aren't just tools anymore—they're systems that can handle entire flights from takeoff to landing.

Not quite. They can handle takeoff just fine. Landing? Not so much. If this company really thinks that vibe coding is key to speed, and hires based on people's buy-in to that concept, they have a mountain of tech debt that is going to land on that airplane in mid-air one of these days.

maxprehoda•4mo ago
The article mentions that the pilot still has to be present and monitoring the planes instruments for landing to go smoothly. We review/audit all AI-generated code the same way we would review human generated code.

There certainly is a great deal of money riding on the belief that this is true, which compounds my skepticism of any claim that it is.

Nothing is ever as simple as it looks, and I don't believe this can be an exception.

maxprehoda•4mo ago
It's not simple though, it's extremely complex. The engineers we hired didn't 5x their productivity the moment they starting using these tools. There's a learning curve to using Claude Code and Cursor. There's also a very important prerequisite: be an amazing developer.
