In this inaugural episode of Vibe Coding, host Cosmo Scharf speaks with Ash Gobindram, CEO of Kinemeric, about using AI to create "believable humans" in XR training simulations and how vibe coding is transforming his client workflow.
Ash reveals how he uses Lovable to prototype interactive experiences for clients in under an hour—from a lending platform interface for a private equity firm to step-by-step watch repair instructions for luxury brand Richemont. He shares the practical reality of vibe coding: when to start fresh versus iterating, why some projects work better than others, and how he built a full travel agency website in just two hours.
The conversation explores the striking parallels between today's vibe coding revolution and the early mobile app era that Ash lived through starting in 2009. From Palm Pilots to iPhones to AI-generated code, we discuss how computing is becoming more democratized and personalized—and what that means for the future of software creation.
Plus: Why "believable" matters more than being photorealistic in XR, the philosophical concerns about AI replacing human relationships, and Ash's vision for a decentralized computing future where we interact with technology across multiple form factors.
Key Topics:
Using Lovable for rapid client prototyping (real examples shown)
