The funny part is that Replit has billboard ads along the 101 in Silicon Valley that say "vibe code, safely"
I didn't realise repl.it has pivoted to vibe coding. It used to be similar to CodeSandbox or jsfiddle - a sandbox for writing and running code.
A lot of have pivoted. When I attend conferences, most of the vendor sponsors are basically “this same product that provides this common service, but with AI integration”.
And probably 90% of them are just building on top of OpenAI's API rather than having their own model, and OpenAI still don't know how to become profitable. It feels like the dot com bubble all over again.
