I’ve used GPT4 (text) heavily as part of my business, including for front end stuff.

The technology is very impressive - but honestly Twitter examples are super cherry picked. Yeah, you can build some very ugly, basic front end web pages and functionality right out of the box. But if you want anything even slightly prettier or more complicated, I’ve found you need a human in the loop (even an outsourced dev is better). I’ve had GPT struggle with even basic back end stuff, or anything even a bit out of distribution. It also tends to give answers that are “correct” but functionally useless (hard to explain what I mean, but if you use it a lot you’ll run into this - basically it will give really generic advice when you want a specific answer. Like, sometimes if you provide it some code to find a bug, it will advise you to “write unit tests” and “log outputs” even if you specifically instruct it to find the bug).

Plus, in terms of capabilities, tools like Figma already have design to code functionalities you can use - so I don’t think this is really a change in usable functionality.

Of course, the tech will get better over time.

I’ve had good results with “match the style of the webpage/figma”.
