Vibe coding can make it a lot harder to learn programming though, depending on how you use an AI. If you're a beginner and you can't read code very well, you're going to struggle a lot more when you have thousands of lines of the stuff written badly by an AI.
Which means real experience still takes years. But you need to consider the speed at which coding agents improve. Maybe next year they will be more reliable to use without domain experience. Today? You can get a small app or POC without knowing how to code.
