He took a job interview on his work machine from a fake company that was actually the NK hacking group and was convinced to download the payload. Beyond stupid to take an interview from your current employers machine.

Sounds like social engineering had a greater impact on this incident than vibe coding did.

TFA says this hack was mostly phishing and old-fashioned social engineering. I can’t tell whether the author thinks Homebrew is “an AI tool” (it’s not) or an unnamed AI tool was involved. It’s not even made clear that the devs were actually vibe coding, let alone how it contributed to the success of the hack. Regardless of how you feel about AI, let’s not abandon critical thinking.
