> I think it's a fair attitude if your only goal is to make money

Short term, yes. But it's a bit short sighted as most of the AI code I have seen has security and scalability issues that long term have potential to blow up in your face costing even more money.

Granted that can usually be fixed by better prompts. But to right those prompts requires the person doing the "prompt engineering" (rolls eyes) to actually have a working knowledge of a lot of areas such as architecture, security, software engineering best practices, etc. And a lot of the influencers out there pushing AI openly admit to "not knowing how to code" let alone knowing the right way to build a technology product so that it scales and is safe.
