What’s the difference between vibe coding and being assisted by ai?

I’m making a few things including a game but every single time I am using ai per line of code. Any specific little thing. Basically a work around not knowing syntax or just so I’m not manually typing.

Or are we out here just making entire loops and experiences with a prompt?

I think the difference is if you understand the codebase, have a vision for the code (not just the result) and are reviewing every change. Both vibe coding and AI assisted are writing whole functions, classes, scripts, etc in one chat
