07 / Ways of Working
Vibe coding
Accepting the output without reading it. Entirely fine for a throwaway prototype. Not fine for anything a customer, a colleague or a regulator will depend on.
How you’ll hear it
“Did anyone review this?”
“No, it was vibe coded. Fine for the demo, not for launch.”
Avoid
Shipping unreviewed AI output to customers.
The longer version
Vibe coding means accepting AI-generated output without reading it. It is a fast way to explore ideas and prototypes, and a real risk for anything customers, colleagues or regulators depend on.
