Great! If you got more to go off of than vibes then that's a great sign. Tons of people measure their performance in vibes. Frankly, because performance is a really difficult thing to measure.

But we're all just talking to "some random dude on the internet" and that context isn't shared. I'm certain you see both people where AI is helping as well as people where it isn't. Maybe in different proportions than others. But if you're upset that I don't know you, well... that's a bit hard to do in forums like this.



I'm not upset that you don't know me, and I'm fine with people saying AI isn't for them. I even acknowledge that cursor jockeying is only marginally better than hand coding in many cases.

That's a very different situation from having an intensive conversation with an AI to generate a formalized CUE spec with correctness guards, E2E testing specifications, etc, then decomposing that spec into lanes and dispatching a swarm of agents to build it, review work, implement e2e tests/QA, etc. They're both AI, but one is vibe coding and one is autonomous engineering.
