5 safety practices to know before vibe coding

Here's what beginners need to know to vibe code securely. The term vibe coding has spread across the tech world since early last year, after OpenAI co-founder Andrej Karpathy wrote about his experience of generating code by just talking to an AI model without really thinking about the code itself. I just see stuff, say stuff, run stuff, and copy paste stuff, and it mostly works, he wrote in the X post that sparked the term. In the tech industry, vibe coding is now the new normal. While it's a powerful way to move faster with less resources, generating code with AI that you don't fully understand or haven't reviewed can pose serious security risks to yourself, your devices and anyone using your app.
