Critics Mock AI 'Vibe Coding' as Passive Programming
Original: Maybe Vibe Coding Should Be Called "Cuck Coding" Because You Just Sit in a Chair and Watch https:// futurism.com/artific
A provocative column from Futurism argues that 'vibe coding' — using AI tools to write code while a developer simply supervises — might better be called 'cuck coding,' since programmers essentially sit and watch the machine work. The piece is sparking debate about whether AI-assisted development strips coding of skill and agency, and what that means for the profession's future.
Why now: Ongoing debate about AI replacing real programming skills has made jokes and critiques of 'vibe coding' resonate widely.
