    Watching Vibe Coding become mainstream has been fascinating.

    Some people believe software engineering is becoming less important because AI writes more code.

    I actually think the opposite is happening.

    The easier it becomes to generate code, the more valuable engineering decisions become.

    AI can generate five different implementations.

    Someone—or something—still needs to know which one fits the project’s history, architecture, constraints, and long-term direction.

    That’s where software engineering lives.

    Not in typing code.

    In making decisions.

    I think the future isn’t AI replacing engineering.

    It’s AI becoming better at understanding engineering decisions.

    That requires more than source code.

    It requires persistent project knowledge.

    That’s one of the ideas I’m exploring with Contorium: giving AI access to a project’s evolving intelligence instead of only its current files.

    Vibe Coding changes how we write software.

    It doesn’t change why good software succeeds.
