I prefer to reserve the term engineer for people with math and science degrees. If a vibe coder is an engineer then so is a pool boy.

You'd then be shocked by how many students at my university (in engineering btw) who simply take the assignment at hand, put it in chatGPT and submits it.

I half worry for society and half feel that as much as I feel bad about my coding abilities, I'm better than people who never actually bother learning the concepts themselves and fully outsource their homework to AI and that population is growing. It's a low bar but more people are failing to clear it every day!
