That's worse than you think. Maybe not for you though.
They are trying hard to push vibe coding in my work and they had one demo that stood out.
They showed how VC had created an app to analyse multiple logs. It worked, but when they showed the code it was using csv module in python and had created all its own functions. The app was 100's of lines long. The same thing could have been achieved in a few lines of code using pandas.
The person creating the app had no experience of python, nor how do to the work. So they could never tell whats wrong.
.. And that is what is going to happen as junior people come into the workforce, as the next line being pushed is you don't need an expert to VC.
Now imagine that tool in the hands of someone who knows how to build it the right way, and can instruct the LLM to generate the code in the right way. You get what you would have created yourself, but just much faster.
