I actively hate the term "vibe coding." The fact is, while using an LLM for certain tasks is helpful, trying to build out an entire, production-ready application just by prompts is a huge waste of time and is guaranteed to produce garbage code.
At some point, people like your coworker are going to have to look at the code and work on it, and if they don't know what they're doing, they'll fail.
I commend them for giving it a shot, but I also commend them for recognizing it wasn't working.
