To me, the obvious next step for these companies is to integrate their products with web hosting. At this point, the remaining hurdle for non-developers is deploying their creations to the cloud with built-in monetization.
Just tell it to use your gcp/aws account using the cli, makes it infinitely powerful in terms of deployment. (Also, while I might miss some parts of programming that I have given to AI, I certainly don't miss working with clouds).

Please don't.
People burning through their tokens allowance on Claude Code is one thing.
People having their agent unknowingly provisioning thousands of $ of cloud resources is something completely different.
This is also on the cloud providers for not giving us good tools to manage costs.
How about, "tell the agent to write instructions for cloud deployment with a cost estimate"
and specifically, the big companies, in a way that people notice. Claude Artifacts, AI Studio, etc. all kinda suck. If you have used Manus or connected your own CF, GCP, AWS, etc. you see how easy it could be if one of the big guys wanted it to be (or could get out of their own way).
the big boys probably don't want people who don't know sec deploying on their infra lol.
Deploying from Antigravity is as easy as say connecting the Firebase MCP [1] and asking it "deploy my app to firebase".

We have been working on this, letting any coding agent define infrastructure so we can define it effortlessly: https://specific.dev. We aren't just targeting non-developers though, we think this is useful to anyone building primarily through coding agents.
I dont think these are made for non-devs, Lovable and other which are built for non-devs already provide hosting.
Replit already does this
interestingly opencode's first product was an IaC platform... seems to be where this is all going.
