Designer and AI creator michalmalewicz (54k followers) argued that if the core logic of a vibe coded app is simply wrapping user input in a prompt to call an LLM, it has almost zero publishing value. He believes that as AI capabilities rapidly improve, market expectations for AI applications have far surpassed this simple paradigm, and developers need to invest more effort in product design and genuine value creation.
