"I don't think vibe coding is the end of software development any more than the compiler, high-level languages, or the virtual machine were. Those shifts felt disruptive at the time but became foundational, moving us from hardware whisperers to application builders. And this will be the same, so long as we stay grounded in defining the right problems, keeping humans in the loop, and having visibility and security in place."
"Vibe coding is just another abstraction to a higher order, the same way procedural and object-oriented programming became an abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s for punched cards and assembly language programming. In all previous cases of coding abstraction, the volume of development work did not go down; it increased significantly, but the nature of the job changed, and we will see the exact same thing happen with vibe coding."
Vibe coding represents an evolutionary abstraction in software development analogous to prior shifts from assembly to high-level languages and virtual machines. Adoption will change the nature of developer work and likely increase development volume rather than eliminate roles. Safe production use depends on clear problem definition, human oversight, robust visibility, and security controls. Vibe coding and mainstream tooling remain works in progress that offer benefits but carry risks. Organizations should adapt processes, governance, testing, and tooling to capture advantages while mitigating the perils of premature or unmanaged deployment.
