Think vibe-coding will turn you into a rich entrepreneur? You might want to read the risk brief

An ACM policy brief says vibe coding can speed up software creation and make app development more accessible.

But AI-generated code often ships insecure, untested, bloated, and harder-to-maintain software, with added risks from prompt injection and autonomous misuse.

The report also warns that heavy reliance on these tools could weaken foundational programming skills over time.

Its recommendation: require rigorous testing, formal verification where possible, and human review before production deployment.
