    Today I learned the term Vibe Coding. I love it.

    Edit: This article is a treasure.

    The concept of vibe coding elaborates on Karpathy’s claim from 2023 that “the hottest new programming language is English”,

    Claim from 2023?! Lol. I’ve heard (BASIC) that (COBOL) before (Ruby).

    A key part of the definition of vibe coding is that the user accepts code without full understanding.[1] AI researcher Simon Willison said: “If an LLM wrote every line of your code, but you’ve reviewed, tested, and understood it all, that’s not vibe coding in my book—that’s using an LLM as a typing assistant.”[1]

    Did we make it from AI hype to AI dunk in the space of a single Wikipedia article? Lol.
