      No. Copypasting pieces of existing code has been standard practice for human programmers since the beginning of programming. Deciding to call it “plagiarism” because it’s been automated is just ignorant.

        When you copy/paste a piece of code and somebody asks you “Hey this code is pretty awesome how did you write it?”, you usually say “No I didn’t write it, I just grabbed it from a site.”

        Vibe coders on the other hand will actively tell you that they wrote it themselves when they actually used an AI. THAT is the difference.

          Ai is just middle manager of plaigerism. it learned to code from other people. the vibe coder is just claiming ownership over stolen goods.

          The one vibe coder I know actively talks about specific things he has it do and how much time it saves him.
