Earlier quoted context omitted.

While I've had similar notions throughout my life, they have their own host of problems, yeah?

Nothing is truly perfect. Maybe in 5-10 years we'll have massive 3D printers that can build you any house without needing a big construction crew. I doubt but if you asked me 5 years ago about AI being capable of replacing me, I'd have laughed in your face... Alas, here we are.

Lets make ourselves redundant. At least I won't have to relearn JS every 2 weeks.

Don't worry, in 5 years it will just be another layer in the JS dev stack, so then not only the version of npm, dependencies, docker, and 3 API keys have to match but you'll also need the correct commit of the 20GB LLM so the build doesn't fail. All for the sake of simplicity and increased productivity, of course.

Can we please stop posting twitter links? It's a horror show of a website, especially if you don't have an account.

I’m confused - what are you specifically having problems with? I’m not logged in and the site loaded fine on mobile and then again on desktop. The video played immediately, I didn’t see any ads. Are you hoping to be able to comment without an account? That’s usually not how things work. I’m guessing this is another case of Elon induced nerd grumpiness?

Never been a big fan of twitter, but it looks the same to me as it always has. It's never been that user friendly for those not logged in.

Anything Elon is bad now though apparently. Seen quite a few comments hoping the Starship launch fails tomorrow, strange times we live in.

It loaded faster than a YouTube video would have for me. Since I don't have an X login, there wasn't even a temptation to get drawn into any other pointless content. I like it.

I was discussing with a client how to integrate our software with his. He sent me a screenshot of the main form. I put the screenshot into ChatGPT and said “make a react form like this in bootstrap”. Made some adjustments, added my software, a few hours later showed the client who was knocked out to see a proof of concept of our systems integrated so quickly. When doing web development I often take a screenshot of a…

It’s most likely using chatgpt in the backend

Squarespace, Wix etc have already taken the bottom of the market, and if they hadn’t, Indian outsourcing would have anyway. This is the logical progression of those same concepts. If I were a product manager at a website builder, I’d be all over integrating ai builders like this. It will never work for barely defined complex business tasks, but it might do fine to create a cost estimator for a photography business, f…

I just see this as a tool to help make UI designers (and maybe POs) look smart and competent, but the real work is going to go to the programmers, just as it does today.

UI designers will be able to give a "demo" but how will this basic functionality translate to the rest of the app? It won't.

Works ok for me in safari. This post shows a video and I was able to watch and close with no popups or anything.

Certainly the least scary horror show I’ve seen in a while.
