I think the term pretty accurately describes what is going on: they don't know how to code, but they do know what correct output for a given input looks like, so they iterate with the LLM until they get what they want. The coding here is based on vibes (does the output feel correct?) instead of logic.
I don't think there's any problem with the term, the problem is with what's going on.
That's fair. I guess what I hate is what the term represents, rather than the term itself.
