> My wife, who has no clue about coding at all, chatgpted a very basic android app only with guidance of chatgpt. She would never ever been able to do this in 5 hours or so without my guidance. I DID NOT HELP HER at all.

you know Google used to have a app for this

I swear people have forgotten how productive native programming 30 years ago was (Delphi, even VB)

I know what app builders are but she talked to a computer system, told it what she wanted and it WALKED HER through all the steps and i think she used android studio.

She did all of this in a few hours and doesn't work with computers.

Literally all much of the business world needed was a slightly more capable VB but now we have a bunch of crappy, web browser based SaaS platforms instead.

There has been a legitimate hole after Excel, where Access, VB or other tools sat to help businesses grow.

When that hole wasn't as big, it seemed fewer software projects failed.
