On Monday, Bluesky, a social networking platform, experienced intermittent service disruptions, which users quickly attributed to the development team's reliance on AI-assisted coding, referred to as 'vibe coding.' This reaction came despite Bluesky officially stating that the issues were linked to an upstream service provider. Many users took to their feeds to voice their frustrations, using memes and humor to criticize the development team for perceived sloppiness in coding practices. This sentiment underscores a significant skepticism among tech users regarding the use of AI tools in software development. Bluesky's founder, Jay Graber, had previously acknowledged the integration of AI in their coding processes, stating that both engineers and non-engineers utilize AI tools like Claude Code. The backlash illustrates a divide between professional coders, who are increasingly embracing AI, and end users, who often view these tools as a source of problems in technology.
