I enjoy both and have ended up using AI a lot differently than vibe coders. I rarely use it for generating implementations, but I use it extensively for helping me understand docs/apis and more importantly, for debugging. AI saves me so much time trying to figure out why things aren’t working and in code review.

I deliberately avoid full vibe coding since I think doing so will rust my skills as a programmer. It also really doesn’t save much time in my experience. Once I have a design in mind, implementation is not the hard part.
