Vibe coding has turned senior devs into ‘AI babysitters,’ but they say it’s worth it

Fastly says **95% of developers** spend extra time fixing AI-written code. Senior engineers take the brunt. That overhead has even spawned a new gig: “**vibe code cleanup specialist**.” (Yes, seriously.) As teams lean harder on AI tools, reliability and security start to slide—unless someone steps in. The result? A quiet overhaul of the dev pipeline. QA gets heavier. The line between automation and ownership? Blurry at best.
