Absolute madness.

Back in May, I started experimenting with vibe coding to build a few things. At the time, I thought it was only capable of handling simple projects. I couldn’t have imagined how fast it would evolve—leaping forward every single month. Just six months later, it’s already capable of building products with complex architectures.

Watching AI code grow at such speed while working alongside it has been genuinely astonishing. I feel that vibe coding might be the best way to truly understand AI intelligence—by coexisting and collaborating with it. It’s like having a mentor: it works for you, tirelessly and without complaint.

LLMs are bringing a kind of democratization of super-intelligence and building power. Everyone now has the chance to harness the strongest “brains” and construction abilities. Anyone can easily turn their ideas into reality.

It’s a truly blessed time to be alive.

Its wild. At work and even in side projects I have time to do things I've never had before. i wanted to do confirmation of payments in my game for so long and I did it last night in about 3 hours.

I don't know anything about coding (except what I learned in computer lab decades ago). And I've recently started using AI to write a python script to analyze a spreadsheet with a lot of nuance in the data. It's helping a ton! I'm now looking for more ways it can help me!

What extra value is it helpful for? Can you share context. I love learning about these things

The time required to check this data (manually compiled by someone else, using no formulas) is more than I can invest each week it's produced. So, this script checks for errors in the arithmetic, looks for specific problems, and even proposes possible solutions.

Nice! Often it's the use case that I find most powerful

We just don't have any idea what's being built in a sense!

I have always struggled with this particular batch of data, it's not an output from a database... it's a bunch gathered info from a dozen other spreadsheets. So, this gives a much better and faster analysis than I could do.

Great. Which AI programming software are you using?

I'm limited to what corporate says we can use (proprietary data), so I have Copilot doing most of it, but ChatGPT is also available.

Today I beat the AI into submission! I have a pretty report with colors and all!

Well done — keep exploring. 🫡

That's fantastic. Many tasks can now be handled this way, while ensuring data security.

Yeah, I have been automating routine stuff I do at work with AI written python script

It’s incredible the speed it’s happening at

Totally agree

What’s hard to figure out: how will software have any re-saleable value?

Ie why will people still pay for software products?

If it’s so easy to make a bespoke tool for any problem to face, why use another’s service that doesn’t fit perfectly?

My hunch: it’s now about blending physical with digital. The defined reality of nature, and the scarcity that goes with it, combined with bespoke AI built software. Eg a logging business

You stack competences. And compete in traditional verticals

Fascinating

Agreed. Also, the tools and data are proprietary. Small tools can likely be generated in-house. Large software tools will still have a market due to cost and stability considerations.

Vibe coding AI is like the future beings of Interstellar. They have vast, unrestrained knowledge and capabilities, but are incapable of focusing it to relevant endeavors.
