We're beyond that, now we can vibecode both the tests and the implementation.

It's always been possible to vibe code, it's just really fast now!

I've done slipshod work full of bugs and security problems and thrown it over the fence hoping it will stand up long enough to be someone else's problems like 20 years ago!

There used to be near-universal derision for people who'd copy-paste a patchwork of code from StackOverflow, but now its almost fashionable to let an AI do it for you.
I've been thinking about this a lot and we don't really do tests right. But if we did, ya, maybe we could just vibe code an entire system (the AI would have to run tests and fix things if it didn't work out).
