At the end of the day you need humans who understand the business critical (or safety critical) systems that underpin the enterprise.

Someone needs to be held accountable when things go wrong. Someone needs to be able to explain to the CEO why this or that is impossible.

If you want to have AI generate all the code for your business critical software, fine, but you better make sure you understand it well. Sometimes the fastest path to deep understanding is just coding things out yourself - so be it.

This is why the truly critical software doesn’t get developed much faster when AI tools are introduced. The bottleneck isn’t how fast the code can be created, it’s how fast humans can construct their understanding before they put their careers on the line by deploying it.

Ofc… this doesn’t apply to prototypes, hackathons, POCs, etc. for those “low stakes” projects, vibe code away, if you wish.
