What I really want to know is... as a software developer for 25+ years, when using these AI tools- it is still called "vibecoding"? Or is "vibecoding" reserved for people with no/little software development background that are building apps. Genuine question.

Steve Yegge has been a dev for several decades with lead spots at Amazon and Google, has completely converted to using AI, wrote a book about it using it effectively for large production-ready projects, and still calls it vibe coding.

		I don't think I'll ever adopt this term, I'm not a fan of it at all. I find myself saying "I was working with AI" and just leave it at that. It is a collaboration afterall.

As a software developer over 30 years, AI is not a tool, it is not deterministic, it is an aide.
