but it's akin to being a project manager contracting the work out.

And that's probably the difference between those who are okay with vibe coding and those who aren't. A leader of a company that doesn't care about code quality (elegant code, good tradeoffs, etc) would never have cared if 10 monkeys outputted the code pre-AI or if 10 robot monkeys outputted the code with AI. It's only a developer, of a certain type, that would care to say "pause" in either of those situations.

Out of principal I would not share or build coding tools for these people. They literally did not care all these years about code quality, and the last thing I want to do is enable them on any level.

Or maybe if you are good at delegating and reviewing code and stepping in to do a deep dive by hand when needed to maintain understanding, then you can use LLMs to greatly increase your speed.

Well, now they can have their way without a pesky developer second-guessing every decision of them.

I don't want to participate on it either, but I'm glad they'll have the chance to make things their way with all the consequences it brings unfiltered.
