Building got easier, thinking got harder
"Vibe coding" isn't the revolution
AI has made it possible for people with little or no traditional programming experience to build working software through natural language prompts, a practice often referred to as “vibe coding.”
Entrepreneur John Hu describes how he used this approach to build an AI-powered startup that reportedly grew into a 7-figure ARR business.
Rather than focusing solely on the technology, John Hu shares 4 principles that he believes contributed to his success:
Subscribe, become a member, or gift a subscription to a friend.

In fact, when everyone can create software, the real challenge becomes knowing what to build, who to build for, and how to create lasting value.
