I work at an early stage startup and I'd estimate 70-80% of our codebase is vibe coded (510k lines). To be clear, it's not 1 shot "build this feature." More like, "implement get_slim_documents for Jira in the exact same way we did it for the Confluence connector."
Comfort with AI coding tools is actually something we gauge during interviews/work trials. Looking at our peer companies, it's exactly the same.
My hypothesis/assertion is that companies founded ~2022+ are fundamentally intertwined with "vibe coding." In 5 years, programming will connote vibe coding more than it will connote non-AI assisted work.
Am I crazy? Pigeon-holed in the SF startup world? Naive? Would love to hear more thoughts/diverse perspectives on this.
