I call BS.
Okay, this situation might actually be feasible for simple applications, but at its current state, I question the AI's ability to maintain apps that grow in complexity.
I look forward to it being a productivity tool, but anything that's complicated, (enterprise apps, caching layers, database indexing) AI can't solve at least for the next 10 years.
AI cant invent, it can only derive or create from existing code. Cant tell the AI.. create the code that will grant me time travel powers. Probably wont work. These people just use it to copy and put together. I want my app to look like this app, runs like this other app, but it is to sell polka dot socks. Its just 1 step above templates.
Squarespace and Wordpress already exist for those.
AI might make them even cheaper. That means more mom and pop shops being able to sell their products online. This is a great thing.
Yup. And mom and pops haven’t been able to afford decent programmers for 20 years. If you want to hire me, you better be building Shopify itself and not a small storefront. I’m too expensive to build things Wordpress can do just fine.
