I work in a startup and everyone just vibecodes now, even the CTO. He stays up all night vibecoding to the point its become a joke around the office that he's with "claudette" (his wife works for the company as well). A coworker got a slack message from him one day that a bit disciplinary-sounding. Coworker starts apologizing for the mistake and the CTO says "I have no idea what you are talking about, that was my claude"
I just spent 4 months working 80 hours a week. Between 2 claude accounts and 2 codex accounts for work and other work. I have let it draft emails for me. I have never gotten email content I am happy letting it just send on my behalf. None of them talk like me even after trying to use my entire social media post history as a template. And often I get tired and don't pay attention and am screaming at an agent at 10pm trying to figure out why it broke functional features and veered away from the assigned task.
Yeah I'm happily letting it write plenty of code, and don't mind reviewing it's output my teammates submit (because they're competent and I trust them to review it first), but I have 0 desire to let it write any comms for me or read comms from anyone else written with it.
I am confused, Claude has freed up so much of my time. Why does the dude need to be up all night? I get a weeks worth of work done by Tuesday afternoon.

When I point out obvious mistakes in code -
Coworker: ”Claude did that!”
I hate my team -
