“We don’t even write code anymore.
We are using voice commands.”
I was exploring an AI product recently.
Small company.
Funded.
Non-technical founders.
Recently, they hired some interns to build an “AI system.”
What followed was a shift from engineering to vibe coding.
They wrapped Python scripts and APIs,
added AI layers on top,
and started calling it “fully AI-powered.”
And now,
the system is completely uncontrolled.
Models are reading and sharing data freely.
No system-level checks.
No boundaries.
Whole multi-tenant database exposed.
Data flowing without control.
And the confidence?
“We don’t even write code anymore.
We are using voice commands.”
I saw the system.
And honestly,
it was concerning.
Not because of what was built,
but because of how quickly a stable system can turn into something unpredictable.
Engineering builds systems.
Vibe coding builds everything except that.
