Vibe coding gets a qualified defense, a supplier portal finally connects a real human, and a new white paper examines intentional AI adoption. Host Jason Oberholtzer sits down with Christophe Jammet, Andrea Stein, and Rudy Chang for three signals and a synthesis. CJ makes the case that vibe coding belongs in the hands of the people who feel a broken process, as the fastest way to validate an idea before spending real engineering hours. Andrea shares what happens when a faceless supplier portal finally puts real humans on a call. Rudy previews his white paper on intentional AI adoption, and why applying AI carelessly to creative work erodes the distinctiveness that makes you, well, you.
