Vibe coding: Empowering and imprisoning

> A huge reason VCs and tech tycoons put billions into funding LLMs was so they could undermine coders and depress wages

is just pure speculation, totally unsupported, and almost certainly untrue, and makes very little sense given the way LLMs and ChatGPT in particular came about. Every time I read something from Anil Dash it seems like it's this absolutely braindead sort of "analysis".

> Vibe coding might limit us to making simpler apps instead of the radical innovation we need to challenge Big Tech

is also pure speculation and doesn't make sense. In fact, enabling people to create small and simple apps could well indeed challenge and weaken dependence on big tech.

I stopped reading and closed the page.
