Vibe Coders might be serious, but I cannot take them seriously, especially when they say "It is a must-have skill". (www.youtube.com)

Just to clarify, I google a lot while coding, but one thing I learnt from my engineering degree is that is there is no 'best' solution.

And a glorified auto-complete might be part of a solution, but it isn't the solution itself. And definitely not the best one.

Exactly. It's like vibe coders are not interested in writing the best code possible. They just want to write the code and not understand what goes on when a program is run.

I find this statement to be a bit contradictory to your point of 'there is no "best" solution'

I don't think vibe-coding is particularly good thing, but I find it completely normal for someone to just want to vibe something up and not want to understand. It's not always a useful approach, but sometimes it might be a 'best' strategy, too
