Vibe coding
바이브 코딩
A way of making software where you describe what you want in words and the AI writes the program, instead of you writing code.
Overview
The term was coined by AI researcher Andrej Karpathy in February 2025. Instead of looking at code line by line, you say "make it feel like this," run it, and if you do not like it, you fix it by describing the change again.
People who have never learned to code can now build simple apps and websites. But if you use code the AI wrote without checking it, errors or security holes may be hiding in it, so important services need review.
An everyday example
It is like telling an architect "a house with big windows and lots of sunlight," instead of drawing the plans yourself, then looking at the finished house and asking for changes.
Why it matters
The barrier to making software has dropped a lot. It is also part of why coding takes such a large share of AI usage.
