AI for Reports and Data: An Alternative to Vibe Coding

A new piece on vibe coding hits the mark: the problem isn't AI, it's the habit of solving every task by generating an app. The author illustrates this with the launch of a school magazine: instead of a homegrown CMS, he built a WordPress project with Claude Code, 12 mu-plugins and basic infrastructure in a couple of evenings. The core idea is simple: AI is more useful as a multitool for picking the shortest path than as an excuse to write code where a ready-made platform will do.

A column has appeared on Habr about using AI for reports: the author explains why a neural network is worth using not only for vibe coding, but also for assembling data with formulas and structure.

What is vibe coding?

It means using neural networks to write code automatically, with the AI generating program code from a description of the task.

How can businesses use AI beyond coding?

Instead of building a full application, it is often enough to ask the AI to put together an Excel file with formulas and a clear structure for a data report. That is a more practical and maintainable solution.

When should you use AI instead of vibe coding?

When you need a more practical and maintainable path. For example, for a data report, it is enough to ask the neural network to assemble an Excel file with formulas and a clear structure.
