Cheaper per line of code, maybe. But now you’ve got a billion more lines of code, compared to when you previously only had one line of code.

So now you’ve got to maintain and manage all those new lines of code, which becomes a huge O&M budget problem. And it’s the wrong color of money.

And all that money you think you saved now has to get paid out the other end — with oodles of interest.

This is going to be a very expensive lesson for companies to learn. You can’t just vibe code your way into the future in any kind of a sustainable way.
