Tech Leaders Champion AI-Driven ‘Vibe Coding’ as Future Software Development Model
DevOps expert Gene Kim and former Google engineer Steve Yegge are promoting “vibe coding,” a controversial approach where developers trust AI agents to handle implementation details. Their new book argues this method represents the future of software development, though critics warn of potential chaos without proper safeguards.
