In-Ear Insights: Everything Wrong with Vibe Coding and How to Fix It
In this episode of In-Ear Insights, the Trust Insights podcast, Katie and Chris discuss the pitfalls and best practices of “vibe coding” with generative AI.
You will discover why merely letting AI write code creates significant risks. You will learn essential strategies for defining robust requirements and implementing critical testing. You will understand how to integrate security measures and quality checks into your AI-driven projects. You will gain insights into the critical human expertise needed to build stable and secure applications with AI. Tune in to learn how to master responsible AI coding and avoid common mistakes!

Christopher S. Penn – 00:00
In this week’s In-Ear Insights, if you go on LinkedIn, everybody, including tons of non-coding folks, has jumped into vibe coding, the term coined by OpenAI co-founder Andre Karpathy. A lot of people are doing some really cool stuff with it. However, a lot of people are also, as you can see on X in a variety of posts, finding out the hard way that if you don’t know what to ask for—say, application security—bad things can happen. Katie, how are you doing with giving into the vibes?
Katie Robbert – 00:38
I’m not. I’ve talked about this on other episodes before. For those who don’t know, I have an extensive background in managing software development. I myself am not a software developer, but I have spent enough time building and managing those teams that I know what to look for and where things can go wrong. I’m still really skeptical of vibe coding.
We talked about this on a previous podcast, which if you want to find our podcast, it’s @TrustInsightsAI_TIpodcast, or you can watch it on YouTube. My concern, my criticism, my skepticism of vibe coding is if you don’t have the basic foundation of the SDLC, the software development lifecycle, then it’s very easy for you to not do vibe coding correctly.
Katie Robbert – 01:42
My understanding is vibe coding is you’re supposed to let the machine do it. I think that’s a complete misunderstanding of what’s actually happening because you still have to give the machine instruction and guardrails. The machine is creating AI. Generative AI is creating the actual code. It’s putting together the pieces—the commands that comprise a set of JSON code or Python code or whatever it is you’re saying, “I want to create an app that does this.” And generative AI is like, “Cool, let’s do it.” You’re going through the steps. You still need to know what
