Vibe Coding is such a great name
Later, many programmers and STEM students said they didn’t like the term Vibe Coding because it wasn’t rigorous at all, and that it should be called AI Coding or Agentic Coding instead.
They’re not wrong, but I feel that Vibe Coding is meant to describe a group of humanities students who never knew how to code starting to use AI to code. They weren’t looking for rigor in the first place—they were just going with the vibe.
