A recent study by Central European University and the Kiel Institute for the World Economy warns that Vibe Coding, a new AI-driven programming approach, may undermine the open-source ecosystem. Vibe Coding allows users to create software by simply describing desired features to AI tools like Cursor, Claude, or Copilot, which then assemble code from existing open-source libraries. This method, while increasing accessibility and efficiency, bypasses traditional interactions with open-source communities, potentially reducing the incentives for developers to maintain and improve open-source projects. The study highlights a shift in user behavior, where AI intermediaries replace direct engagement with open-source projects, leading to a decline in community feedback and support for maintainers. This could result in fewer high-quality open-source projects over time, as developers face reduced returns from their contributions. The paper suggests that AI platforms should adopt a revenue-sharing model similar to Spotify's, compensating open-source maintainers based on the usage of their projects, to sustain the ecosystem's health and innovation.
