first of all, AI is crap at writing code, and is mostly a buzzword. second, node-based editors already exist and will achieve what you want nostr:note1fell5dd8zaux3x8gwx6tkzm5z9znswtmjsga4r20tyjyahm96hws5qdej8

It's pretty good for simple tasks
because those tasks usually can be achieved by the means of googling it and changing a few things in the code
it is a glorified lossy data compression algorithm
That's true but I still think it's a better experience then google
It's totally overhyped but it's not useless. I have no formal code education and was able to piece together multiple websites using AI as my assistant
for decades there has been idiots trying to say that the skill of programming will some day become obsolete
they are still wrong and will always be wrong
I don’t know, Claude is doing a pretty impressive job on the C# project I’m doing 🤷♂️ I have to tweak it and get to fix errors but it’s working
I don’t know a lick of C# btw.
The "people will just make their own apps on the fly" meme reminds me of when Intel et. al. kept pumping articles about how people don't want one device that does everything, they want separate devices for each task email, web browsing, printing, etc.
also, people want shit that works
> they want separate devices for each task email, web browsing, printing, etc
That’s still true.
Not devices. Software.
Related use cases are being merged, while any use cases that do exist but are rarely used become simplified so people do not have to learn how it works in detail and/or directly integrated into other applications/OS (example is printing)
In Nostr, microapps won’t scale, as the cost to be familiar with n applications scales as n^2
Eventually, microapps converge into integrations and large clients.
They’re right that we want separate devices though. Should be like toasters
I use it to write a ton of boilerplate. I still have to edit a lot of the boilerplate... But it's still way less typing in general.
