It was funny I was handed this project to work on and I skimmed the ReadMe, there were a lot of readmes in the code like how to use pipenv or whatever basic stuff... at first I was like "nice job with the docs" but then I later realized it was a vibe coded project I felt like I was owned. It's funny

Also funny how much time was wasted since it had random code in it that was not removed (not working old code vs. current working new code) that's not to blame on the AI part but yeah.

I have a job now in the industry it's funny I work with AI eg. AWS Bedrock/Knowledgebases/Agents... RAG/LLM AI.

The AI I want to work with is vision/ML (robotics) but don't have the background for that (I do it as a hobby instead).

I'm feeling the effect of vibe coding now, where the 2nd leader in our team was only recently a developer but uses ChatGPT/windsurf to code for him which enables him to work on random topics like OpenSearch one day Airflow the next... idk I get I'm the one being left behind by not doing it too but I also want to really learn/understand something. You can do that with an AI-assisted thing but yeah... idk I don't want to that's what I'm saying, I will get out eventually once I've saved enough money.

My learning process for a while has been watching YT crash courses/reading the docs/finding articles...

The project I mentioned above there was literally a prompt in the repo "Write me an event-driven app with this architecture..."

The 2nd leader I mentioned above is a code at work/not at home type of person which is fine but yeah. I'm not that person, I like to actually code/make stuff outside of work. It's not just about getting a task done/shipping some code for me. But I guess that's what a business is, churn out something.

Idk there's some validity there isn't there... "I've been a developer for 10 years, then a guy with 2 years comes in vibe coding stuff" is the leader. Which I'm past it, I don't do office politics anymore, I've got a six-fig job, no need to climb, I'm coasting. Debt is really the only problem I have.
