Nail. Head.

The amount of code I now "write" (I've started calling it directing) and features I've put into my side projects has been more than the last 5-10 years combined this last year.

I successfully created a sold a product within 3 months. Start to finish, because of the productivity power I received.

People are misusing it.

I'm also using GPT-4 for my side projects. For the database specifically, I can write a short sentence describing my table. Then get GPT-4 to generate the SQL to create it, plus a TypeScript interface and data repository module for access with the methods and SQL for basic CRUD. If I need more than basic CRUD, it can usually create methods for that also.

Its also pretty good at generating basic tests, amongst other things.

Can you elaborate more on the product that you created and sold?
