A thoughtful post here on how to be a computer programmer in the advent of AI.

The temptation to vibe your way through problems is very, very high, but you will need to fight against that temptation.

Peers will be vibing their way through things and that will be annoying: you will need to work harder than they do, and you may be criticized for being slow. The work dynamics here are important to understand: if your company prioritizes speed over understanding (as many are currently) you need to accept that and not get fired.

However, I think that this is a temporary situation and that soon companies are going to realize that vibe coding at speed suffers from worse complexity explosion issues than well understood, deliberate coding does.

And, linked in the above is this study with unsurprising findings.

Over four months, LLM users consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels. These results raise concerns about the long-term educational implications of LLM reliance and underscore the need for deeper inquiry into AI's role in learning.
