"Vibecoding" is about how you use AI tools, rather than who you are.

If you're asking the AI to generate large amounts of code that you don't really look at, you're definitely vibecoding. If you are mainly writing the code yourself with some assistance from AI tools, you are not vibecoding.

Naturally it's fuzzy in the middle. And for people without software development skills, vibecoding is the only option they have.
