The issue lies with knowing what the code does that AI produces, if you don’t have a clue and still use it that is when you are a vibe coder in my book.
If you just use it to increase productivity and improve code then I don’t see any issue with that and it does not make you any less of a developer. Times have changed, Stack Overflow is from the past.
If I slop out code, I still see it as a piece of crap. It doesn’t matter whether I understand it or proof-read it. If I ever do that, I stop being a programmer.

I program longer than that kid lives.

You don’t see any advantage to having code auto written to spec and then being able to tweak the result? Just simply as a time saving/efficiency hack?
Honestly curious, not baiting here.
