Those Who Swift - Issue 207
Weekly note ✏️The term vibe-coding has been spreading fast, fueled by the rise of LLMs and AI assistants that handle the boilerplate, the complex, and the mundane parts of coding. Some developers are even generating entire projects by simply prompting their ideas. You might love it, you might hate it—but it’s happening. More concerning, despite security best practices, some developers are feeding entire codebases into AI for refactoring—even for critical apps in healthcare, banking, and insurance. The whole vibe of vibe-coding suggests that programming isn’t something complicated anymore. Just have an intention, describe what you need, and let AI handle the rest. But here’s the real question: AI-assisted coding is here to stay, but blind trust in automation comes with risks. The real skill isn’t just in getting AI to generate code—it’s in understanding, validating, and securing what it produces.
