i run a small insurance firm, 20 years in that domain, zero in software, and i recently vibe-coded my way into running agent infrastructure for the business, so i should stall at 80%. but I think that the judgment my project actually needed was mostly regarding insurance itself, and making sure the knowledge base it pulls from was sound, so I was able to use my experience on that side to produce what I hope is a useful product

the technical side is of course different and i don't have that judgment, so i try to get by with fresh-session reviews, testing, and keeping it on the simpler side because i know i can't audit the code myself. whether or not that proves to be a winning formula remains to be seen, but either way i think it's reasonable to say that some regular folk will stall at the 80% but others may figure out a way to power through it using caution and reason

I think it's amazing that more people have this power now, and I think we're going to see a ton of new and innovative businesses spring into life as people wield it.

I also think that technical experts are going to become more valuable and that we're going to have more products show up at our front doors in need of major help and with security holes and these kinds of things.

You can't know the kinds of questions that need to be asked, the kinds of problems that need to be anticipated without knowing the space, and I think it's hard to learn the space without formal training or experience.
