EP30: Why “Vibe Coding” Exposes the Real Problem with AI Assisted Development
from Cloudy with a Chance of Insights – A Microsoft Cloud Podcast for Architects and Engineers · host Richard Hogan, David Rowley and Cyrus Irandoust
As AI tools make it increasingly easy to build something “good enough”, this episode asks an uncomfortable question: where does real differentiation actually sit now?We use recent Microsoft Cloud updates as a starting point, including certification changes, early moves to treat AI agents as identities within Zero Trust, and a series of security and governance shifts across Purview, Defender, Entra, and Intune. Those threads lead into a deeper discussion about identity as the real perimeter, post breach tooling built on Microsoft Graph, and why AI assisted development is starting to flatten outcomes rather than improve them.The conversation then turns toward vibe coding and the future of applications. If building tools is this easy, what does an app even mean anymore, and how do organisations avoid repeating old governance mistakes, just at AI speed?BlogThe Microsoft Cloud BlogYouTubeCloudy with a Chance of Insights - YouTubeSoicialsTwitter / XBlueSkyLinkedInThreadsFacebookMusicNull Invocation: Monochrome PulseMonochrome Pulse on SoundcloudFor all the links to the articles etc, please visit the companion blog site.The Microsoft Cloud Blog
