AI and Productivity

May 15, 2025

I had this thought

There’s a difference between AI writing a percentage of someone’s code and AI making them more productive. That person remains the author - they still need to understand and verify the code. AI might do most of the writing, but productivity may stay the same.

This clarifies what the “vibe” part of “vibe coding” means. The amount you’re vibing is inversely proportional to the amount you’re understanding and verifying.
