My Concerns With Vibe Coding - From a Vibe Coder.
Something that's been on my mind quite a bit is how far Ai is advancing, and at such a rapid rate.
It's a lot of fun at times, I have made a lot of cool things, and I've watched so many other people do the same.
But I have also seen a shift, a shift that is worrisome to me.
So many apps are being built all the time, that the market is getting flooded, nobody seems to give a shit about anyone's creations anymore because anyone could do the same thing now, with little to know experience.
This not only creates a lot of apps, but also makes it so nobody's app really matters.
It's cool to see what people build, and I have really enjoyed watching it and doing it myself.
But what is the long term effects, does anyone think about this? Does anyone care?
What happens when building a website costs less than a Burger at Burger King?
What you get is not only a flooded market, but inferior apps too.
And what happens to real devs? Do they lose their jobs because they are no longer needed anymore?
It's kinda scary to think about.
And also, it creates a big risk, traditionally you could kind of tell if an app was legit and safe to use based on how it looked and performed, scams were usually built worse, but now anyone can build something that looks legit but might not be.
This is just something that's really been bothering me recently.
I have had fun building, and I will continue to build for you.
But man, support a real dev who puts in the work.
They deserve it. 🫂 🐕
