Live Panel Discussion: Less Code? More Vibes? Web Dev in the AI Era
summary
Claim: AI already writes thousands of lines of code per month for developers, cutting scaffolding time from about 70% to 7%. Tools in active use include Copilot, Cursor with a Cursor + Claude 4 combo, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and custom redaction patterns to keep emails/passwords out of models. Demonstrations include an AI agent that builds a flight-booking UI with Google Pay but skips accessibility and edge‑case checks, and a price‑calculator that looked fine but produced wrong math. Many rely on vibe coding, but projects still require human review and secure engineering.
