It's reliability was already not super great before the vibe coding hit.

It's mostly caused by them trying to migrate complicated legacy systems to azure. This type of work is already fraught with danger.

The vibe code just supercharges an already risky endeavor. The LLM code could be perfectly correct but the more dynamic a complicated system the more difficult it becomes to judge side effects of any one change.

The speed of change also means that experts in particular areas of the code base may find their mental model of the system to be out of date and incorrect faster than ever before.
