The way I understood it: Cobbling a program together by simply prompting AI assistants over and over, blindly using the generated code, and repeating until it barely approaches satisfying the requirements. Not worrying about things like correctness, proper design, code cleanliness, understandability, performance, code size, security, data protection, maintainability, or even bugs unless they catastrophically stop the user from running the program.

I really hope this doesn't actually catch on in "real" engineering, beside as a meme joke.
