That problem isn’t new though. It’s not the biz people that are enthusiastic over AI, it’s the devs.

You're so lucky to work for a company where PMs don't vibecode and tell how easy it is to do things....!

The problem sometimes is even PMs don't know what to do, so vibecode things is just burning tokens without a real goal!

Some devs are, some aren't. I've seen some numbers and its more or less a 50/50 split. HN comments kind of confirm that anecdotally.

Engineers seem to fall within a spectrum between "building" (enjoy the task of designing and programming something) and "completing" (enjoy seeing a finished product). AI enthusiasm correlates neatly with that dimension.
