AI Is Transforming How Software Engineers Do Their Jobs. Just Don't Call It 'Vibe-Coding'

AI chatbots like Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 4.5 now solve 72% of coding problems, speeding development while complementing software engineers' skills.

  • Anthropic unveiled Claude Sonnet 4.5 on Monday, saying it will be the `world's best` for coding as software engineers adopt `vibe-coding` to offload grunt work.
  • Earlier this month, Anthropic said coding is the top use for Claude, with about 39% of users coding, while Stanford University researchers found AI tools solved 72% of coding problems last month.
  • Some assistants automatically finish the code engineers write, acting like an `autocorrect`, while Claude Sonnet 4.5 coded autonomously for more than 30 hours on a project for London-based iGent.
  • The shift has sparked concerns about job losses across software careers, though Philip Walsh said AI will complement engineers and may increase demand.
  • San Francisco and the Bay Area remain the hub of the AI coding battle, hosting OpenAI, Anthropic, and startups like Anysphere, while OpenAI introduced GPT-5-Codex in September amid growing partnerships.

By MATT O’BRIEN One of the hottest markets in the artificial intelligence industry is selling chatbots that write computer code. Some call it “vibe-coding” because it encourages an AI coding assistant to do the grunt work as human software developers work through big ideas. Others dislike that term. But there’s no question that these tools are transforming the job experience for many tech workers amid an intense rivalry between leading AI compan…
