Anybody can vibe code, same as anybody can build a house - it's just that both of those will fall apart pretty quickly if you don't know what you're doing.

You can get an AI to plagiarize a bunch of open source projects that people have volunteered time to create, bypassing the licensing of those projects and mashing them together into something that sort of resembles what you want it to do on a basic level and is full of horrifying security holes and feature gaps that may not matter for your particular usage.
So, yes, you can vibe code. That's what vibe coding is. Enjoy.
Anybody can make shit up with a slop generator.
