The Story behind Vibe Coding!
The story you dont want to miss..
Hey fam, it’s Sunday, March 30, 2025, and I’m scrolling the AI scene—stuff’s popping off this week!
Here’s the rundown from my couch—let’s chat about what’s hot, what’s wild, and what’s got me hitting “Accept All” without a second glance.
I just cant stop writing about Vibe coding - listen to the story behind it.
So, last month, Andrej Karpathy co-founder of OpenAI and former AI director at Tesla— you know, the OpenAI co-founder and ex-Tesla AI guru — dropped this tweet:
“I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy-paste stuff, and it mostly works.”
He’s chilling, chatting with an AI assistant, letting it crank out code while he vibes.
He called it “vibe coding,” and the AI crowd lost their minds.
I saw it, said, “Yo, that’s wild,” and started running my own experiments.
Here’s what I found — this whole vibe coding thing is a trip, and I’m spilling all the tea from my deep dive.
No stiff lectures, just me, some AI, and a messy, fun jam session. Let’s roll!
The AI guys ate it up, and in weeks, Merriam-Webster slapped “vibe coding” in their dictionary: “writing computer code in a somewhat careless fashion, with AI assistance.”
Y Combinator’s Garry Tan’s like, “25% of our Winter batch? 95% of their code’s LLM-generated.”
I’m thinking, “Is this the future? Just vibe out some words and boom — software?”
Some say it’s tech’s next big thing — anyone can yap their ideas into reality.
Others call it a coding jam session — start with a riff, let the AI flow, and see where it lands.
Critics? They’re screaming disaster.
One Reddit dude’s like, “It’s handing a race car kit to your drunk uncle and bragging you built it.” I said, “Okay, let’s test this vibe.”
I Talked to AI Instead of Typing with Wispr Flow — Here’s How It Went:
No syntax fights, no docs, just me talking and it typing.
Check my try here. It’s flipping coding upside down — I’m not sweating lines; I’m tossing high-level vibes at the AI and tweaking as we go.
I tried it — told Claude to whip up a game, ran it, and it mostly worked.
I Felt the Flow — Coding’s a Vibe Now
I Heard Big Names Vibing — They’re Hooked
Riley Brown, self-titled “Sr. Vibe Coder,” has a million followers just voice-commanding apps into existence.
Karpathy’s the vibe king — his posts blew up with thousands of likes, sparking this whole thing. With his AI cred, folks listened.
Andrew Chen from Andreessen Horowitz says, “most code will be written (generated?) by the time rich. Thus, most code will be written by kids/students rather than software engineers. This is the same trend as video, photos, and other social media”

I say clear stuff — language, features, limits . Break it down, tweak it, run it. Check the vibe — bugs, security, ethics. Know some code, keep it real — AI’s not god. Stay chill but sharp.
All the amazing things that happened this week
Gemini 2.5 Drops
ChatGPT Ghiblifies the World
Google’s Gemini 2.5 rolling out, ChatGPT’s new image editor turning the world into a Studio Ghibli dream, and I’m just here saying stuff to my AI buddy, running it, and vibing hard.
I Saw Gemini 2.5 and Said, “Whoa, That’s Next-Level”
I saw it on Google’s blog—they’re calling it a reasoning champ with a 1M-token brain, outsmarting Claude 3.7 and ChatGPT’s o3-mini in some X hype posts.
ChatGPT ready to Ghiblify the World and It Did
Here’s our slickest image editor yet, built into GPT-4o,” and I’m saying, “Turn me into a Ghibli boy!” Next thing I know, I’m a Hayao Miyazaki masterpiece—flowing hair, serene vibes, the works.
I ran it, and boom—social media’s flooded with Ghiblified memes.
I’m Vibing—AI’s Running the Show
“It’s flow—Karpathy-style.” Gemini’s got devs buzzing, ChatGPT’s got the meme lords, and I’m just the dude chatting with machines, watching it all pop off. What’s next? I dunno—gonna say some stuff, run some stuff, and see where the vibe takes us. You in?
