1. How often are you actually using it, for prototyping, exploring interactions, handoff, or something else entirely?

2. What’s it replacing for you, if anything? Static mockups, Figma prototypes, coded proofs of concept?

3. Any concerns that come up, losing control over the details, devs pushing back on AI-generated frontend, or a weird gap between what’s “designed” and what actually ships?

4. What’s holding you back from using it more, if anything? Tooling, trust in the output, org policy, just not having the bandwidth to learn it?

5. Has it changed how you work with engineering, smoother handoff, or more friction?

6. Finally: does it feel like it’s actually helping your craft, or does it just add a new layer of work reviewing and fixing what it spits out?

Any feedback is very welcome!

Curious to get a pulse check from people actually in the trenches. It feels like everyone’s suddenly shipping AI-generated code at a much faster clip, PRs are bigger, review queues are longer, and “vibe coding” has gone from meme to actual workflow for a lot of teams.

A few things I’m trying to understand:

1. Has this genuinely reduced your workload, or just shifted it (e.g. less time writing, way more time reviewing/debugging)?

2. Has code quality or tech debt visibly changed on your team since this became common?

3. Any horror stories, a vibe-coded PR that broke something in prod, hid a security issue, or just caused chaos once someone actually read it closely?

4. Has it changed how your team reviews code, or who’s allowed to merge what?

Not trying to dunk on AI tools, genuinely just doin some research and want to hear how this is playing out day-to-day for people shipping real code.
