Episode 11.21 - Vibe coding losing it's shine, but we're trying it anyway

At the beginning of 2025, vibe coding (using LLMs to create computer code) was all the rage. By June, the bloom had fallen off the rose. Studies showed professional coders were losing skill, and falsely believing they were made more productive using it rather than doing it themselves. This failure of AI to produce efficiency made the fad of vibe coding crash faster than any other AI-related application. Companies producing tools to support the work lost 60% of traffic by September.Undeterred the editorial staff of Cyber Protection Magazine jumped into the fad with both feet... because the practice still has value for people who don't know jack about coding but have a few ideas. Patrick Boch and Lou Covey talk about their vibe journey to date. Don't pass up the poll.
