AI Models Can Generate Code. That Does Not Mean a Model Can Build a Production Product.

AI models can generate impressive code quickly, but generating code is not the same as building a production-ready product. Production software demands requirement fidelity, architectural soundness, security, testing, observability, and disciplined iteration — none of which a single model reliably provides on its own. Vibe coding is useful for prototypes and POCs but is not a production methodology. The real opportunity lies in orchestrated, multi-step delivery systems that use models as components within a structured process, rather than treating a single model as a complete product team.
