What is Vibe Coding, and what advantages and disadvantages offers this concept of programming using artificial intelligence

Let’s explain in a simple way What is Vibe Codinga new way of programming using artificial intelligence tools. Or at least it is a term that has been coined to refer to the people who use AI to create code and program. We are going to start the article explaining what Vibe Coding is in a simple way so you can understand it. Then, we will tell you the main advantages and disadvantages that this methodology has. What is Vibe Coding The easiest way to summarize the concept of Vibe Coding that is It has nothing to do with knowing how to program, but to know what to program. Come on, it is something like programming without knowing how to program, using an idea in your mind and resorting to artificial intelligence. Therefore, it is a term coined by artificial intelligence expert Andrej Karpathy for refer to using AI tools to create code instead of writing a person. It’s like saying in an elegant way that you use artificial intelligence to create the code, just like there was an elegant word to say that your drawings have made them with chatgpt, or that you are a “composer” of music that uses Suno. Basically, in this concept or work method it is that you have an idea, and you are asking with natural language to an artificial intelligence chat that Code believes you to do this and the other. Thus, the AI ​​is responsible for generating the code while you supervise the process by making the creative mind through Prompts. It is a concept that is creating a lot of controversy, because some people see it as the future of a more accessible schedule and where it is not so necessary to spend hours picing code. However, others also warn of the dangers of depending too much on artificial intelligence. In the end, as with many other artificial intelligence tools The important thing will be to find a balance. Perhaps to use AI for simple code fragments or sketches on which to work. Advantages of Vibe Coding The main advantage of this method is Make the most accessible programming For anyone. You would no longer need to have programming experience to create applications or software, not even study one or more languages, of all this will take care of artificial intelligence. In addition to this, the Vibe Coding It should also be able to reduce times in projects improving productivity. As the code brute is written by an AI, even if you have to review this, this should reduce development times at a certain level. And finally, even if you want to do a project programming it, you will always have the option of Create prototypes and sketches quickly with the code generated by the AI. Then, from that code you can start working, or directly start from scratch after seeing how it works. Vibe Coding Disadvantages As is evident, the first disadvantage is that You will create a code that can have all kinds of errors. The AI ​​has not yet reached maximum reliability when creating code, so it will be very necessary to invest a lot of time to review everything you think to make sure there are no failures. It is also The loss of technical knowledgesince if a company hires many people who do not know how to program and use only AI to do so, in the end it will not be able to undertake complex tasks. In addition to this, there is also the problem that If a technical or code failure arises But you don’t know how to program, so you will not have the knowledge to solve the problem. This, in the long run can make productivity less. In Xataka Basics | How to improve chatgpt responses: 9 steps to guarantee higher quality and better sources

Its programming wizard offers much more free use than Microsoft

If they asked us to name some programming assistants, Github co -ilot I would probably be on the list. This Microsoft product has gained notoriety for its ability to complete code, generate functions and make programming easier thanks to artificial intelligence (AI). However, Google has entered the game with an ambitious proposal, seeking to capture the attention of the developers. A generous free experience. Google seeks to stand out in the AI ​​race for programming reliefing user pocket. While Github Copilot offers 2,000 monthly consultations without cost, Gemini Code Assist It has set its limit in 180,000. That is, its free offer exceeds in more than 90 times the equivalent of the Redmond company, offering developers a negligible. Free levels, at some point non -existent, have become a key strategy to attract new users and familiarize them with a tool or service. It is an ancient tactic as computer science, where companies offer limited but functional versions of their software with the aim of generating adoption and, eventually, turning those users into payment customers. Copilot logo In the case of Gemini Code Assist, the free level limit may be sufficient to help some users complete their projects. “If you are a student with an urgent project, you will not see your coding project suddenly for reaching the limit,” says the company led by Lasting Pichai. A positive aspect is that you can start using it without registering a credit card and the limits are restarted every month. Gemini Code Assist en Action An integrated tool. There is a substantial difference between using a conventional chatbot such as Chatgpt for programming tasks and a dedicated tool. The main advantage in integration in development environments (IDE). Gemini Code Assist works both in Visual Studio Code and Jetbrains IDE, which allows users to complete code automatically while writing or working with functions. The Google wizard also has a chat window that offers up to 240 free daily applications and admits a context of up to 128,000 tokens, allowing you to work with large files and optimize the understanding of the local code. In addition, Gemini Code Assist is integrated into Github, where you automatically check requests for changes, detect errors and suggests intelligent improvements. Programming without ia is increasingly rare. A few days ago we pointed out As several experts assured that the new generations of developers do not know how to program if it is not with ia. They entered this world using this type of tools, so not having them can become a problem. Google itself accounts for this scenario and states that 25% of the entire code they create in the company is generated by AI. Images | Google In Xataka | There are too many AI models.

There are Spanish studies of authentic guerrillas programming games for nes: ‘Malasombra’ is the last example

5 years of development has invested the 4MHz study in developing ‘Malasombra’, an ambitious video game developed entirely for the legendary Nes of Nintendo. With the date of departure scheduled in the second quarter of the year, the game is already beginning to perform in places such as the IBI Vintage Museum, in Alicante, on February 15. A fantasy in 8 bits. ‘Malasombra ‘moves us to a fantasy world with an argument that is pure Lore eighties: Pirou is an aspiring magician who sees how the evil bad sorcerer snatches his beloved on the same day of his wedding and makes all guests in toad. You will have to gather the pages of a powerful grimoire that will allow you to acquire skills through transmutations to defeat the villain. 4MHz, devotees of the eighties. Behind Malasombra is this study specialized in the development of 8 -bit video games, which usually accompany physical editions in the original formats. So far they have specialized in titles for Amstrad CPC as ‘Goodbye to the caste’ and its sequel, ‘The Lost Treasury of Cuauhtémoc’, ‘Profanation 2’, ‘Baba’s Palace’ and ‘Operation Alexandra’, an excellent Survival Horror With touches of Metridvania set in an abandoned Nazi base, and that deserved international fame. {“Videid”: “x9d9p5w”, “Autoplay”: True, “Title”: “Malasombra – Trailer”, “Tag”: “”, “Duration”: “90”} Origins in the microororders. The first steps of ‘Malasombra’ are given, significantly, in Amstrad CPC, like the rest of the studio games. But the project was soon growing in ambition, to the point that in October 2018 they began to do graphic and programming tests to pass it to NES and thus have more technical slack. It was the first time they tried on this new platform, but the results were positive and launched into the Nintendo console. Relear to program. The biggest challenge for the team, as they count, has been to adapt their knowledge to the programming for NES, an environment to which they were not used. On a technical level, the game has demanded to develop a new C and assembly engine, on the Nesdoug’s neslib base. They have also created specific tools of the game to improve performance, which explains that development has prolonged so many years. In Xataka The most unexpected testament has been Gamer: a grandmother left a game of Game Boy and 26 copies of the same game The complete pack. Developing a cartridge adapted to the needs of the game has not been easy, so it counts 4MHz, and they have had to create a support with two specific properties. On the one hand, store games without the need for a pile fed WRAM memory, which does not have to worry about the battery; on the other, a system that replaces the specific chips of Mappers Classics, which guarantees the compatibility of ‘malasombra’ with modern emulators.
