Vibe Codingは始まりに過ぎない

Experts can debate how advanced AI tools are today, but a clear benefit for enterprises is how the technology can quickly equip employees with information that would otherwise take time to acquire.

For example, non-coders can develop code by prompting an AI system with natural language using a technique called vibe coding. The concept now extends beyond coding to other types of professional work. An employee without legal training, for example, could use tools such as Anthropic Claude Cowork to better understand a contract. In other words, employees are moving beyond vibe coding to vibe living.

"One of the phenomena that's taking place is that as non-experts, you can move into fields where you don't have expertise — and before that was quite difficult," said Abel Sanchez, research scientist and executive director of MIT's Geospatial Data Center, on the latest episode of Targeting AI. He added that because of vibe living, employees who understand how to use the technology will have a competitive edge.

"It's the power user," Sanchez said. "It's the human within AI. You will not be replaced by an AI. You will be replaced by a human using an AI. And I think that's the winning combination."

However, despite the success some have found, many feel AI is not as advanced as experts think.

"The humans, we still have things that the machine doesn't have," said John Williams, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at MIT. He added that AI, for example, is good at deductive reasoning, but humans are good at integration and intuitive reasoning.
