That seems to general. Im a mobile developer and sometimes I need a simple script outside my knowledge area. I needed to scrape a website recently, not for anything serious, but to save me time. Claude wrote it and it works. Its probably trash code, but it works and it helped. But you wouldn't want me using Claude to do important work outside my specific area of focus either or im sure Id cause problems.
I'm also a mobile app dev and at my workplace they're having non-mobile devs submit code to my codebases totally vibed with no understanding behind it. It's absolutely causing problems, especially for me, who is one of the only lines of defense keeping stuff even remotely maintainable.
So yes basically you're right. If people only used it to learn and do initial code review passes and other reasonable things we'd be totally fine. But that's unfortunately not the reality π
The next step is, CEO, look at how good these non-mobile devs are, they're submitting 10x the commits to the mobile repo than boraginoru our mobile dev! We should fire him and just let the backend devs keep vibe coding it!
I'm talking about people that are accountants that now thing they can create software. Or engineers who think they can now write legal briefs for court.
