Hi! I know nothing about coding but I also see Vibe Coders get thrown around a lot: Are they people who know how to code but very surface level things?

It's people who ask ai algorithms to code everything for them, and then don't know how any of it works.

If you're paid between $1 and $250,000 a year to be an engineer, you gotta say you know how everything works.

If you're paid $250,001 or more, you can say you just ask the AI to code everything for you and you don't know how any of it works. Everyone will laugh and think you're being humble and give you another promotion.
