The Truth About Vibe Coding (AI-Assisted Programming)

Vibe coding is an emerging software-development workflow that shifts the programmer’s role from writing every line of code to prompting and refining an AI assistant that generates code from natural-language descriptions.

In healthcare, it assists doctors in comparing medical scans for quicker, more accurate diagnoses. In media and marketing, it enables creative teams to manage...
