It still takes time and effort to be a project manager for app developer agents. Might as well just pay for it and get stuff done today. Instead of spending time on software maintenance, you could just pay for someone else to deal with all that hassle.
Everyone is buying and selling software miracle cure…but all of the software itself is still exaclty as healthy as a con artists prize race horse (not healthy, and actually a mule).
Yea. Slightly modified - “If conditions are now so prefect now that 8 billion humans can ask their computer nicely to program itself, and it works, then why is non-shit-tier software still vanishingly rare?”
Anyone can prompt Shlawp to write some code, but an expert would need to check it for errors and stupid design decisions. Normally, the user isn’t qualified to verify the validity of the answer or quality of the code and that’s why people who use Shlawp can’t make high quality applications.
So, when you say “it works” it’s true for being able to generate at least some kind of code, not good code. The thing about Shlawp is that all of its outputs are very mediocre at best. They look convincing to everyone who aren’t qualified to evaluate the outputs. Those who are, will immediately notice all sorts of flaws.
Better question is if you can really build an app as easily as writing a prompt, why would anyone pay you for your app?
Somehow AI bros like to pretend that AI is some secret lifehack despite it being one of the most mainstream things in human history.

Right. But Fermi’s Paradox applies.

Fermi paradox? The one about aliens existing?

Oh that way. Now I get it.
