Linus Torvalds talking about how he's a vibe coder now:
"But I still enjoy programming immensely. I think AI is a wonderful tool if you use it correctly and treat it as a tool, and I find it makes programming much more enjoyable"
If getting a chat bot to do the programming for you makes it more enjoyable, THEN YOU DON'T ENJOY PROGRAMMING.
Like saying "I enjoy eating cheese burgers, but I enjoy it even more when someone else eats it for me".
