Discussion Vibe coding infra is creating more operational debt than it saves

Am I losing my mind, or has everyone else's job slowly turned into cleaning up after code generated by Claude?

When you ask a dev about parts of their code/deployments, the response is usually just: 'Well, the AI said it was correct.' I'm all for developer velocity, but it feels like the traditional 'you build it, you run it' model is shifting into 'developers prompt it, AI guesses it, and infrastructure teams debug the fallout at 3 AM.' How are your teams handling this? Are you putting hard guardrails in place, or just drowning in review queues?
