Store-bought cards don't leak your nsec, PII, payment data, biometrics, IP, access patterns, and so on. Also, I don't know of any good supply chain attack that would turn a greetings card into an infection vector, while it isn’t even challenging to poison AI tools to inject whatever malicious payload I want behind the backs of vibecoders.

This "convenience" can unfortunately become quite expensive for end users. I won't touch vibecoded apps without reviewing the code. And when I try to review code generated by pure vibecoders, it usually turns into a mess of confusing spaghetti and multi-hundred-line functions that are impossible to understand. I also have zero trust in the people who built such software to operate it correctly. So, it is a notfor me.

I'm not trying to throw shade at vibecoding, but I would advise users to be extra careful where they stick their D...ata if you know what I mean.

PS: Augmented code, where real engineers use AI tools to support their work, but actually know what they are doing, is a totally different game altogether and I'm optimistic about it. But this is not vibecoding at all (and the result isn't slop, is a codebase that someone like me could take over and mantain manually) and I’d argue that the current gains of using AI coding tools are still debatable. I often find them slowing me down more often than speeding things up.
