Vibe Coding Is Fun Until Production Breaks

Dev.to AI
Generative AI AI Business AI Tools

Vibe coding is exactly what it sounds like: you describe what you want, your AI coding agent writes the implementation, and you ship it. No wrestling with boilerplate, no context-switching into unfamiliar APIs, no debugging stack traces line by line. Just intent → code → deploy. It is genuinely fast. Teams that have adopted AI-first development workflows report shipping features in hours that previously took days. The experience is intoxicating. The problem shows up in production. Not always immediately, not always dramatically - but consistently.
