This is already happening.

It’s true that they won’t know how to exactly specify their needs. But they can share input and output examples and iterate on the solution.

I know folks without any programming background using ChatGPT to write code for them.

The code doesn’t work right off the bat but by iterating with the agent they can either get a solution or solve a portion of the problem.

if you mean things like "write me Python code to read a file and count all occurrences of a word" then all cool. Good luck with something like "write me some Java code for Android to send a message to an app user"

Agreed. The space of “read a file and X” problems is huge though and it’s been awesome seeing folks solve these themselves.
