And the real maddening part is that search engines have been so enshitfied to make way for AI that’s wrong like 9/10, so you’re forced to rely on it for answers because if you try google, the snake wraps around and eats it’s own tail giving you an AI answer! stalin-stressed

    My impression is that the people who are most excited about these tools are people like tech journalists and “solopreneurs” (gag), who have been tech adjacent but never formally learned to code and now think that they don’t need software engineers to achieve their vision anymore.

        I’m imagining a comedy with this dialog…

        “Am I a programmer? A lowly programmer? Of course not! I’m an ideas guy.” As the plot unfolds - it turns out the guy has no idea how to do anything. All he does is enter AI prompts and then lie that he has yet another fantastic idea.
