vibe code cleanup specialist, so, normal coder who fixes what a pretend coder fucks up? well you thought AI would take your job but now two people can be employed to do what one person was supposed to do without AI.

they said that AI would take programmers' jobs, but in reality it did the opposite :D

Yeah sounds like job creation to me.

And each one will take much longer than the original coder too!

Not necessarily; you're supposed to throw away the prototype

You can throw the code away, but be assured that the vibe-coder also vibe-specified the software and you will have to negotiate each functionality change with the client.
