This is such a nonsense take. You have no idea how the companies that use mainframes actually operate. There's no world in which they will vibecode a solution.

It's not like the Bank of Americas of the world are going to get an Anthropic or OpenAI API key, and then use the prompt "move this off of COBOL please". They'll either hire a contractor who'll work out how to best utilize AI to migrate the existing codebase off of mainframes, or spin up an internal team to do the same thing.

You've still no idea. Who is going to certify it? No auditor will certify vibe coded slop. Who will provide the indemnity for it? No insurer will touch it. It doesn't even save significant money. The cost of writing the code is a tiny fraction of the total cost of ownership.
