Sure but I'm the real world do you think businesses are going to deploy piles of code into production generated this way? No, non technical people will continue to whip up MS PowerApps. AI generated code has no value to many businesses.

You don't need production level code to make your life easier.

You're missing the forest for the trees. Most people can't even make a block diagram, but they can explain what they have and what they want to do with it.

The value of AI is not in generating code. That's just a "nice-to-have."

The value of AI is in having a scalable, human-like decision maker that you can plug into anything, anywhere. This has unlocked countless use cases for my team, that we could scarcely imagine a few years ago.

  • "Human-like decision maker" except it's just as if not more unpredictable than a human, has no understanding of what it's actually outputting or the impact of it, and it isn't concerned with losing their job or facing legal repercussions for their actions.

    • There are plenty of ways to manage those drawbacks, and a mind-boggling number of use cases where it's "good enough" already.

      But it's not my job to convince you, my lived experience working with the tech is enough to convince me, and that's all I care about, to be honest. Everyone else will get there sooner or later.
