It's really useful in creating base templates, but anything further than that and you won't be able to read "your own" codebase if you depend too much on AI.

    And ... If the AI can't solve your problem after you've cultivated all that tech debt, you're fucked. You should always know the code being written, whether vibe coded or otherwise.
