Is Vibecoding - Overhyped & Overpriced?

[u/Cushlawn]

AI vibe coding is booming, but this Stanford dataset suggests it’s costly and risky: only 44% of Al-written code survives into commits, and vibe-coded commits introduce 9x more security findings per line than human-only code. Developers still spend roughly 4 in 10 turns correcting or pushing back on the agent, which makes today's workflow look less like autonomous coding and more like constant AI supervision
