Stupid term for when people who don't know how to program ask AI to generate code for them which they have no expertise to actually validate.

Edit: It took 20 minutes, but I finally found the poster child for vibe coding (time well spent):

A screenshot of someone being all smug about not needing engineers because they have written a SaaS app using AI, then a second screenshot of the same person complaining that their app is under attack and they don't know how to fix it

It's when people try to have LLM's generate code and then try to assemble the pieces produced into semi-functional, usually really bad, software I think.

And I think "vibe" means that they have no experience with programming so they can't read the code they copy.
