The person who coined "vibe coding" is now warning that vibe-coded software is a security nightmare. Karpathy called OpenClaw "400K lines of vibe coded monster that is being actively attacked at scale" and endorsed NanoClaw (~4,000 lines, containerized by default) as the safer alternative. He's simultaneously coining "Claws" as a new category name for personal agent infrastructure — his third major terminology contribution after "vibe coding" and "agentic engineering." When the industry's most influential namer warns about the thing he named, pay attention. Simon Willison | X/Twitter
