Vibe coding: Because who doesn’t love surprise technical debt!?

SMRTR summary

AI coding tools are creating a trend of "vibe coding" where developers rely on AI to generate code without understanding the underlying architecture. While this approach enables rapid prototyping, it creates technical debt through inconsistent patterns, poor error handling, and fragile systems. These probabilistic AI outputs lack the intentional design and testing that make software maintainable, potentially compromising security and reliability in production environments.
