I found one example of this going very wrong on reddit the other day -

One redditor security reviews a vibe coded project

I agree with your general point but ... "Where are the vibecoded AAA games". A game dev team is typically less than 15% programmers. Most of the team are artists, followed by game designers. Maybe someday those will be replaced too but at the moment, while you can get some interesting pictures from stable-diffusion techniques it's unlikely to make a cohesive game and even prompting to create all of it would still take many person years.

That said, I have had some good experiences getting a few features from zero to working via LLMs and it's helped me find lots of bugs far easier than my own looking.

I can imagine a vibe coded todo app. I can also kind of imagine a vibe coded gIMP/Photoshop though it would still take several person years, prompting through each and every feature.

> Where are all of the actual shipping vibecoded products that millions of users are using?

Claude Code and OpenClaw - they are vibecoded. And I believe more coming.

Yeah, I really wonder if someone would trust to do their taxes in a vibe-coded version of Turbotax...

I regret only having one upvote for this.

I note that games are mostly art assets and things like level design, and players are already happy to instantly consign such products to the slop bin.

The whole thing is "market for lemons": app stores filling with dozens of indistinguishable clones of each product category will simply scare users off all of them.
