Two 20-Somethings Just Became AI Billionaires Overnight

"Apparently 'vibe coding' is now a legitimate path to billionaire status. My CS degree just sent me an angry email."

Lovable's cofounders just hit billionaire status, AI coding tools aren't just fancy autocomplete anymore.

Lovable lets you describe what you want in plain English and ships actual production code. We're watching the barrier between "I have an idea" and "I have a product" collapse in real-time.

Here's the thing though – a billion-dollar valuation doesn't mean the tool is perfect. It means VCs believe non-technical founders will pay premium dollars to ship faster.

Wild that Lovable's founders hit billionaire status with "vibe coding" while we're all out here asking ChatGPT to be less enthusiastic with its emoji use. The gap between vibing and shipping has never been smaller.

What are you shipping this week? Vibes only or actually using those local models?

Keep shipping,

P.S. Before you ask AI for a library recommendation, remember: there's probably already a library that finds libraries for you. It's turtles all the way down.
