Trying to get better at vibe coding is like trying to get better at sleeping. The whole point is not to put effort into it.

Not a good analogy. You can put effort into getting better sleep. If the sunlight wakes you up too early, block out the windows. If your bed is uncomfortable, get a more comfortable bed. If the room is too hot, adjust the thermostat before you go to bed. A little bit of effort can go a long way towards getting better sleep.

But you can't change the fundamental operation of an LLM, by its very nature it is not suitable for producing consistently correct results. Getting better at "vibe coding" is an exercise in futility.

You sound like you have not spent much time using AI tools.

I completely disagree, for both definitions of vibe coding (the unreviewed-prompt-generated-code definition and the llm-assisted-coding definition.)

In both cases the more experience and mindful experimentation you have the better your results will be.
