There was a time when mathematicians wrote LISP programs and other humans translated them into machine instructions. Then one day someone wrote a LISP program to do this, and had one of the translators translate it.

A compiler was born.

Think of Claude as a compiler which compiles NLP text instructions into functional code.

I don't mind tools that empower programmers or even less technical people to build products. I use these tools myself in minor ways, even though I find them to be more of a nuisance than actually helpful.

What I find depressing is how quickly someone with minimal experience can flood the web with low quality services, in search for a quick buck. It's like all the SEO spam we've been seeing for decades, but exponentially worse. The web will become even more of a nightmare to navigate than it already is.
