alt Hacker NewsYes, I am seeing exactly this at my own workplace. Two things have happened close together: low code and LLMs. I don't personally like using low code solutions (such as PowerBI and Power Automate), but for many knowledge workers this is all they have. Now you can just ask your favorite LLM how to do stuff and it can help you. It's not exactly vibe coding because these people really understand what they have and what they want, they just don't know the syntax to get there.
Low code solution have a fairly steep learning curve, and when someone got into it in anger, the complex electrical diagrams that result are even more impenetrable than spaghetti code.
In a large enterprise environment I have seen business users getting burned by vibe coding already, as they often don't even read the comments and warnings that the LLM gives them. But I think it is inevitable and should enable software to automate the millions of manual processes that are too bespoke to pay an IT team to automate.
For a solo entrepreneur, it should enable to get so much done before having to hire the first employee. Hence less risk to go bust, easier to take risks, pure value added.
