Vibe coders are learning. Writing code was never that hard.

For sure, coding starts hard, but it's a hard that gets easier with exercise, like any other exercise.

Figuring out what people need & solving that need. Now that's hard. Irreducibly hard. It never really gets that much easier.

Your favorite LLM, though, can't exercise anything. It doesn't even really know anything. At least not in the sense of the way we say that we know things.
