My experience as well. It's happened a few times now that I'll ask a coworker a question about some system they built, and they tell me to just ask the AI.

I did ask the AI. I gave it several rounds. I got a summary of their diff from it. I skimmed their diff myself. I have a rough mental model of the work they did, plus what the AI did/didn't tell me. I'm asking THEM so THEY can confirm my mental model is correct to the code they supposedly authored.

I suspect the real problem is they vibed the whole thing and didn't even self-review it. So they don't know, can't answer, and the interaction is truly pointless. They are not the expert any longer. It's not worth asking them.

Currently having a big issue in some of our data pipelines because a lazy engineer vibe coded a bunch of slop that doesn't make much sense and the AI can't help. Looking like we're going to need to scrap all the code and start from scratch.

You know the funny thing is that, the lazy engineer can very likely ask you to just scrap all his code and vibe code again.
