Google CEO says vibe coding has made software development 'so much more enjoyable' and 'exciting again'

"It's making coding so much more enjoyable,"

"Things are getting more approachable, it's getting exciting again, and the amazing thing is, it's only going to get better."

"In the past, you would have described it,"

"Now, maybe you're kind of vibe coding it a little bit and showing it to people."

Vibe coding uses AI-assisted tools to make building apps and websites accessible and enjoyable for people without prior coding knowledge. Non-technical workers, including HR professionals and accountants, use tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Replit to prototype and visualize ideas directly. Product managers and employees can create prototypes and submit initial changelists, expanding access to development and enabling new career opportunities. Companies are seeing increases in first-time code contributions and internal prototyping. Rapid adoption of vibe coding raises risks around giving coding tasks to AI, particularly for larger codebases that require stronger security and quality controls.
