Vibe Coding, coined by Andrej Karpathy, emphasizes coding without direct code interaction, relying on AI outputs. While AI changes coding, it doesn't replace the essential role of software engineering, which involves system design over time. Vibe coding focuses only on immediate coding tasks, neglecting vital long-term considerations. Thus, there's no unique “Vibe Engineering”; it's still traditional engineering, albeit with less coding. The future may integrate AI-generated components, but the need for careful system design remains unchanged. Vibe Coding is effective for prototypes but not suitable for robust production software.
