    Whoever came up with it, I don't like this "vibe" thing. What's with us and accepting any half-baked terminology AI folks come up with that day?

    They use 8-bit floats instead of 32-bit floats and call it a quantized model. They put inexperienced people in front of LLM chatbots and have them do collaborative editing and call that vibing.

    Why do we embrace any term they have in store for us whether it is actually significant or not?

    Marketing is the manipulation of people for gain. Sounds like a great fit for AI.

      Um, as someone who just released a product, and has no experience with marketing, I see marketing as "connecting people to solutions to their problems".

        That does require the initial premise that the underlying product is actually a solution, which isn’t necessarily true. Marketing’s just a tool that can be applied.

        If one was marketing something like a scam or even just something useless, for instance, I’d say it’s still marketing even though there’s no solution present.

        Of course, under that same reasoning, “manipulation of people for gain” also isn’t necessarily accurate.

          I think it's more like convincing people to buy a solution for a problem they did not know they had.

        Isn't most Marketing "vibe" or "vape" ?

        I remember that one of the few "viable business ideas" for GPT-3 (very hallucinant) was copy/ad text writing automation.

          Very few of these should actually be bitmap images, but I guess you could try asking the model to convert the image to HTML/CSS/SVG/whatever.

            The point is to post them on social media sites. Why they continue to allow "quote card" images and the like, I'm not sure.

              Well, not the "Hero section for a landing page" with a button in the middle.

            I don't think this "vibe" fad is going to age well. It seems like positive marketing around accepting AI slop as the new normal.
