In my experience, AI-assisted coding requires a lot of human involvement. Claude is certainly much faster than I am, but without my human-programmer hand at the helm, there would not be a working product.

So I'm always surprised to hear about "no code," and finally asked about it on a coder-focused Slack group.

Verdict: At least as of 2024, "no code" is nonsense smoke-and-mirrors. Claude can write functions when it's given well-defined specs, but for an entire application to work, you need a skilled human running the show.
