Not OP, but there are many things that I know don't work without trying them. That's not a contradiction. It may or may not be true but it's not a contradiction by itself. You can know reasonable well that something doesn't work by looking at other people who have tried it (sometimes even better if those people are experts and you are not).
3. Say you don't care and didnt read my comment, but took the time to snoop through my account
Quality comment from a intelligent person clearly! Farming substance-free and contradictory tears from cranially challenged people is my skill I guess.
The problem with people like you judging from your comment is that you love to jump in and be captain obvious because that's easier for you than actually having an opinion that can be dissected about the thread topic. I suspect its an IQ issue.
Ultimately you're incapable of saying anything that isn't already self evident or a cheap insult because you're mad that I'm smarter than you.
Maybe if you want me to go easier on you then you shouldn't call me names and look through my account while claiming you didn't read what you're replying to.
The difference between me and you is I want to discuss the topic while you want to win an argument / get offended and tone police me.

Cold fusion didn't work, until it did. 3D TVs didn't work, until they did. Flying cars didn't work, until they did. Satellite phones didn't work, until they did.
I feel like there's a bit of survivorship bias here. Not saying that vibe coding is completely useless, but you still have to review the code it produces in order to make the most of it really. It isn't completely autonomous (yet) to the point where it can scale to any of the examples you mentioned imo.
Naming two successful technologies says nothing. Your steps don't follow inevitably from one to another and there's a vast universe of failed technologies and stillborn revolutions that prove it. If you want to persuade anyone that vibe coding will ultimately replace traditional coding you need to give reasons you think it belongs with digital cameras and streaming and not with lisp machines, ekranoplans and every attempt at "no code" in history. Otherwise you're just making noise.
The real problem with it is that it doesn't work. It isn't "right way wrong way". It doesn't work.
