Generation AI

The Vibe Coding Revolution

Episode Summary

In this episode of Generation AI, hosts JC Bonilla and Ardis Kadiu examine the growing phenomenon of "vibe coding" - a new AI-powered approach to software development that allows anyone to create functional applications by simply describing what they want in natural language. They discuss how tools like Lovable, Cursor, and Replit are making it possible to build complex, multi-file projects in minutes without writing a single line of code. Through live demonstrations, they show how this technology is making software development accessible to non-programmers while also exploring the potential impacts, benefits, and risks for higher education institutions.
