Exactly. Vibe coding is bad, but generating code for something you don't touch often but can absolutely understand is totally fine. I've used it to generate SQL queries for relatively odd cases, such as CTEs for improving performance for large queries with common sub-queries. I always forget the syntax since I only do it like once/year, and LLMs are great at generating something reasonable that I can tweak for my tables.

I always forget the syntax

Me with literally everything code I touch always and forever.
