my take: as a university student, your priority should be on learning fundamentals, and vibe-coding is a detriment to your learning. the primary audience for vibe-coding is two flavors of working professionals. first, the semi-technical type (ex.: Product Manager on a software dev team), who can use it to rapidly produce janky implementations to explore a concept before committing serious developer time to do it. second, the experienced mid-career developer, who _could_ write it by hand but why type out boilerplate? just have the robot do it. for these two audiences, LLM-assisted coding is extremely valuable. for college students, not so much.
