Ant Group<\/a>\u2019s new \u201cvibe coding\u201d artificial intelligence<\/a> app LingGuang<\/a> has overwhelmed servers after user downloads surpassed 1 million in just four days, hitting the milestone faster than OpenAI\u2019s ChatGPT and Sora, according to the Chinese fintech<\/a> giant.The app\u2019s innovative functionality of generating applications in response to users\u2019 text prompts was temporarily suspended on Thursday evening, with the company attributing the issue to excessive usage in a post on Weibo<\/a>.As of Saturday, LingGuang occupied the top spot on Apple<\/a>\u2019s mainland China App Store for free utilities apps<\/a> and seventh overall for free apps. \u201cThis milestone means LingGuang is a key player worth following in the quickly evolving global AI race,\u201d the company said.Vibe coding \u2013 which allows amateur programmers to create custom software applications \u2013 has become one of the most popular applications of generative AI<\/a> globally.<\/p>\n

US-based vibe coding leader Replit, for example, crossed US$100 million in annual recurring revenue in June, up from just US$10 million at the end of 2024.<\/p>\n

While Replit and other vibe coding tools use AI to generate code, Ant Group\u2019s LingGuang directly generates the app that users ask for, which provides every user \u201ctheir own personal AI developer\u201d, according to the company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ant Group\u2019s new \u201cvibe coding\u201d artificial intelligence app LingGuang has overwhelmed servers after user downloads surpassed 1 million…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148572,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[90842,345,90843,2948,2944,12174,15120,90844,8846,343,344,90845,4193,1657,133,2938,90846,85,46,90847,90848,1748,8166,79955,37508,125,208],"class_list":["post-148571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-agi-lab","tag-ai","tag-ai-first-strategy","tag-alibaba","tag-alibaba-cloud","tag-ant-group","tag-app-store","tag-apples-mainland-china-app-store","tag-apps","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-cai-wei","tag-chatgpt","tag-china","tag-google","tag-hangzhou","tag-he-zhengyu","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-jack-ma","tag-lingguang","tag-openai","tag-qwen","tag-replit","tag-sora","tag-technology","tag-us"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
