Vibe coding made code cheap. Context is becoming expensive.
A landing page can now be built in minutes.
A SaaS MVP can be built in days.
But a few months later, that same product may have auth, billing, APIs, background jobs, database changes, integrations, and multiple AI agents touching the same workflow.
Then one “small change” is no longer small.
Claude or Codex needs the right context before it can safely change anything.
And that is where I think the next big problem starts:
Context debt.
The code may work perfectly today, but every new feature needs more history, more files, more previous decisions, and more understanding of what other agents are already doing.
More context also means more tokens.
And more tokens do not always mean better output.
Now think about an AI-powered e-commerce business.
A support agent processes a refund.
A retention agent sends an offer.
A finance agent updates the account.
An inventory agent changes stock.
Each action may be correct on its own.
The overall result can still be wrong.
That is why I think the real skill in AI development is moving away from simply generating code.
It is knowing:
what context each agent needs
what it should never touch
which agent owns which task
when agents should hand work to each other
when a human should step in
The future is probably not less AI-generated code.
It is more useful output from less context, with much tighter control around how every agent works.
That is where AI engineering starts after vibe coding ends.

AI is going to make websites much easier to build.
And much faster.
I'm pretty sure of that.
But I don't think this makes web design less valuable.
It makes good web strategy more valuable.
Because there will be no shortage of websites that look good.
The real question is whether the website has a job.
For me, that job is pretty simple:
Bring the right traffic.
Build trust quickly.
Turn that traffic into leads.
Send those leads where the business can actually do something with them.
That's what I'm trying to build around real estate.
Not just another nice-looking website.
A proper online asset that actually has a role in the business.
Amazing work!
Congratulations Man
