Vibe coder?
Stupid term people use for "writing" code without the knowledge of programming by using AI.
Kinda the next level of running random code from the internet without understanding what it does.
Maybe I’m old, but I avoid AI specifically because I’ve seen the quality of code out there (not to say my quality is amazing), and if AI learned from that…. Well
It's taught me a few new tricks. It's good at short bits of code, but anything longer is likely to have problems that take as much time to fix as writing it yourself to begin with.
I also find learning something new to be much faster when you can just ask a question about best practices or why something works like it does.
