The guy who coined vibe coding says AI is making programming 'unrecognizable'

"Coding agents basically didn't work before December and basically work since. These agents are extremely disruptive to the default programming workflow. Programming is becoming unrecognizable. This is nowhere near 'business as usual' time in software."

"Over the weekend, Karpathy said he used AI to make a video analysis dashboard for his home cameras. His AI agent completed it in 30 minutes, encountering errors and researching solutions. It was all hands-free."

"Vibe coders are now able to get somewhere, but at the top tiers, deep technical expertise may be even more of a multiplier than before because of the a"

Andrej Karpathy, an AI expert with experience at OpenAI and Tesla, reports a dramatic acceleration in AI coding capabilities. Coding agents, which barely functioned before December, now work effectively and are extremely disruptive to conventional programming workflows. Karpathy demonstrated this by using an AI agent to build a video analysis dashboard for home cameras in 30 minutes, with the agent autonomously handling errors and researching solutions. He emphasizes this represents a fundamental shift away from business-as-usual in software development. While technical expertise remains valuable as a multiplier for advanced work, the field is experiencing unprecedented transformation in how code is written and developed.
