Not all AI-assisted programming is vibe coding
→

Simon Willison has a great post that—coincidentally—he published just a day after my own post on coding with LLMs. You should definitely check it out.

Vibe coding is having a moment. The term was coined by Andrej Karpathy just a few weeks ago (on February 6th) and has since been featured in the New York Times, Ars Technica, the Guardian and countless online discussions.

I'm concerned that the definition is already escaping its original intent. I'm seeing people apply the term "vibe coding" to all forms of code written with the assistance of AI. I think that both dilutes the term and gives a false impression of what's possible with responsible AI-assisted programming.
