Is "vibe coding" synonymous with using AI code-generation tools now?

I thought vibe coding meant very little direct interaction with the code, mostly telling the LLM what you want and iterating using the LLM. Which is fun and worth trying, but probably not a valid professional tool.

My personal definition of "vibe coding" is when a developer delegates -- abdicates, really -- responsibility for understanding & testing what AI-generated code is doing and/or how that result is achieved. I consider it something that's separate from & inferior to using AI as a development tool.
