Programming is not art. In the end, nobody will care whether software was painstakingly hand-chiseled by humans in a dungeon or "vibe coded", as long as the result is good enough. (I'd argue that art will "suffer" from the same "problem".)

What is notable here is that someone is demonstrating that the systems are reaching a quality where this is possible.

I don't know about that, Roller Coaster Tycoon is fondly remembered and sits on a special place culturally because it was written in assembly by a single person.

Programming is more art then anything since it's definitely not a science, nor is it mathematics or engineering.

It's similar in principle to architecture or interior design.
