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

#53Such recent demos show both how impressively ML/AI has advanced recently, and how unimpressively repetitive and unoriginal tasks keep being reimplemented by millions of developers worldwide. Since most UI screens can be accurately described in one or two paragraphs, it's no wonder they can be represented in much detail in a relatively small embedding vector.
A lot of methods of expressing software ideas are also very inefficient. The actual interesting part, the entropy, is very small. In the demo it’s literally two sliders controlling two CSS attributes which is not a lot of bits of entropy in a UI specification. With an appropriate UI specification language, that would be, what, three lines of code? Needing to manage Web UI boilerplate is where the difficulty is.

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.

You used to be able to see context, not just a single tweet. If that doesn't make a difference to you in cases like this I don't know what to tell you.

One forum I frequent automatically replaces Twitter links with nitter.net, which still isn't great but at least lets you see the post.
install the nitter app (available on fdroid) and associate Twitter/x.com links.
problem solved for good

But if you use a specification language, then how can you build a pixel-perfect, unique set of sliders that’s subtly different from everyone else’s?

#57Squarespace, 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 see this as a useful tool for creating interactive demos and prototypes which allow to quickly iterate over ideas. Could keep the feedback loop with clients short and allow to minimise miscommunication. I could see for example Figma implementing this.

#58That's the equivalent of a todo app. How about something more complicated?
Technology like this is interesting from a progression standpoint because this is now the new baseline.

Does the link load so you can see the content OP thought worth sharing here and join the discussion? Yes. What else do you need?
excluding the popups to sign away my privacy, 90% of the time it asks me to login and shows no content.

It’s a lot better as it lets you see the replies / thread which xitter has stopped showing and does not drive engagement it.
> xitter has stopped showing and does not drive engagement.
In the specific case in Xitter, I perceive that as a good change. I like seeing what was linked to, without otherwise getting engaged there.
