Funny how some people get triggered by this. If you read the whole thing, I actually explain how fucking dumb and clueless LLMs still are once you go past boilerplate. You basically need to keep them in check constantly, even for a pet project like mine. I'm not celebrating anything here, just sharing my journey, the fun and frustrations I've had, going through the stages of vibe-coding: from god-mode euphoria to realizing how deceiving the first rush is.
But I do believe we'll get to the point they will replace more and more engineers. yes, I don't know how fast, I don't know if LLM will be able to reach that point. But eventually, all that money in research will get somewhere I believe.

Once you do that, then it is not "vibe coding".

Well some software engineers will get replaced. However, your claim was "all engineers", which isn't realistic.
Given the amount of safety mission critical software that runs the internet, air traffic control for planes, cars and embedded devices, etc they will always need human software engineers to review, test and maintain all of that, including the Linux kernel itself which runs almost everywhere.
Fully replacing all of them with LLMs would be outright irresponsible.

Of course, LLM security researchers and consultants breaking vibe-coded apps.
