"Build Me X... Just Make It Work": How Not to Start Building with AI (#vibecoding) https://vibingwithai.substack.....com/p/build-me-x-jus

Google’s Chief Scientist is Vibe Coding?! 🤯

Jeff Dean says it “works surprisingly well.”

“I’ve been trying it a little bit — and it actually works surprisingly well.” — Jeff Dean, Chief Scientist @ Google

He’s not talking about code. He’s talking about prompting.

One of his team’s examples? 👉 “Make me an educational game with graphics and interactivity based on this video.” The result? Playable mini-games that explain concepts like Mars missions, cell biology, and differential equations.

About 30% of the time, it works. Not polished. But real. Not mass market. But meaningful.

OpenAI’s Chief Product Officer wants us to rethink how we build digital tools.

“Why shouldn’t we be vibe coding… right, left, and center?” — Kevin Weil, CPO @OpenAI

This wasn’t just a throwaway line. It was a provocation — a challenge to shift how we turn ideas into tools.

✅ No need to wait for a sprint.

✅ No need to mock it up in Figma.

✅ Just describe the idea, and let AI build the prototype.

This is the new workflow:

From wireframes → to working prototypes

From slide decks → to vibe-coded experiments

From permission-seeking → to creative autonomy

“Vibe Coding isn’t a fad. This isn’t going away.”

Garry Tan says Vibe Coding is the dominant way to code — and warns anyone late to the game.

“[Vibe Coding] isn’t a fad. This isn’t going away. This is actually the dominant way to code. And if you’re not doing it, you might just be left behind.” — Garry Tan, CEO @ Y Combinator

This wasn’t hype. It was a heads-up. The ground is shifting under modern software creation, from code to prompt.

We're moving:

From syntax → to semantics

From IDEs → to chat-based interfaces

From technical bottlenecks → to linguistic leverage

The quote says it all.

But here’s what it means:

You don’t need credentials to build anymore.

You need a feeling. A reason.

#vibecoding isn’t a framework.

It’s a philosophy.

Think Tao Te Ching, not tech blog.

Flow over force. Prompt over program.

A Grammy-winning producer. An ancient Chinese mystic. And the hottest new way to build apps — #vibecoding.

The Way of Code is what happens when Tao meets AI. A 3,000-year-old text that could guide the future of software.

Thoughts? Can spiritual texts like the Tao Te Ching influence the mindset of AI-driven creators?
