Fast building does not remove the need for care.

Direct answer

Vibe coding risks include hidden bugs, security holes, unmaintainable code, exposed secrets, surprise costs and over-dependence on one tool. Reduce them by working in small steps, keeping version control, adding tests, reviewing sensitive code and understanding what you ship.
