Personally I used them for a while and then just stopped using them because actually no, unfortunately those assistants don't work. They appear to work at first glance but there's so much babysitting needed that it's just not worth it.
This "vibe coding" seems just another way to say that people spend more time refining the output of these tools over and over again that what they would normally code.
But there's going to be an inflection point - soon - as things continue to improve. The industry is going to change rapidly.
Now is the time to either get ready for that - by being ahead of the curve, at least by being familiar with the tooling - or switch careers and cede your job to somebody who will play ball.
I don't like any of this, but I see it as inevitable.
