For a product designer who can't program, vibe coding is like giving me wings. I can finally build the product I want, anytime. It's truly an amazing era. I'm so lucky.

I feel the same, coming from a support, professional services, managed services and developer evangelist set of roles, it has opened doors where I used to just prototype or raise defects and enhancements, now I have the brush.
Absolutely. Over the past few months, I've felt AI programming has grown by leaps and bounds. I can quickly build products I love and want. It's such a blessing.
If you have not already, give Grok Code Fast v1 a go, it is impressive and free for another 20 or so days.
Thanks for sharing. I haven't used it yet, I'll try it. I am now using Claude Code and v0 to build, Gemin and ChatGPT to assist in fixing bugs.
Another neat trick, use adversarial local models for security auditing, like jimscard/blackhat-hacker, jimscard/whiterabbit-neo, ALIENTELLIGENCE/cybersecuritythreatanalysisv2 or similar. Just run them in your local GPU on ollama and use it for things like code review and exploit discovery.
The Grok model is powerful. It nailed several things that others seemed to stumble on. If you have cursor installed, just switch to the Grok one and ask it to do a code review and define next steps and gaps and see what you get. It is fast and free, which saves you credits on the other LLMs.
I am also looking at setting up two local AI servers here at the house to offer me unlimited access to okay-ish models to fill the gaps. I have one with a 4090 and 3080 and another I am building with 4x 3080s. Just need time to get it all together and I am chasing fiat for bills rn.
