Apple Killed a $100M Vibe Coding App While Building AI Into Xcode
TLDR: Apple removed "Anything," a well-funded vibe coding app, and blocked updates for Replit and Vibecode under a rule against downloading executable code, while simultaneously shipping AI-powered coding features inside its own Xcode via OpenAI and Anthropic partnerships.
