The things Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg allow — and forbid — their daughter to vibe code
Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan's daughter can't vibe code products "open to the internet," Chan said. "She's quite limited."
Priscilla Chan, wife of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, limits her daughter's ability to vibe code. She does not allow her daughter to create products open to the internet. Chan's daughter, when asked, said she wanted to build a dating site, but Chan prevented her from doing so. Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan have set tech restrictions on their children for years.
In 2019, Mark Zuckerberg stated that he wanted his kids to be able to video chat with extended family, but not to spend long periods in front of a computer. The Zuckerbergs, like other parents, must now navigate the challenges of AI technology. Priscilla Chan showed her daughter's Replit account, a vibe coding platform, to Jeremy Stern in a recent Colossus profile.
Despite the restrictions, her daughter has shown an entrepreneurial spirit, creating various apps with marketing and sales plans. Chan has limited her daughter's access to open internet applications. While Zuckerberg's daughter wrote a mermaid novel with AI-generated images in 2024, Chan is not involved in her daughter's vibe coding activities.
Other tech leaders, such as Google's Sundar Pichai and billionaire Mark Cuban, also limit their children's internet usage. Meta, under Priscilla Chan's leadership, is heavily investing in AI, launching new products like Muse. However, Mark Zuckerberg does not enforce these tech restrictions on his daughter.
