Totally agree and basically is destroying the software economy that we have, because it feels that everyone can make their own app, suiting their own requirements. But they don't realise this to be a trap, because the majority of the effort of any product is the ongoing maintenance and evolution. Let it a new browser version come along, a new OS version, a new LLM version and once their "tuned", self-made app suddenly stops working or misbehaving, they will realize that it ain't so easy as promised, even if the LLM can be used again to evolve it.

But as all major breakthroughs, the path is forward and there is no logic argument that you can make to let people consider otherwise. Eventually, all the dust will settle down and it will be easier to uncover this and other misconceptions, until then, no worth trying to convince people otherwise.

I mean there's a world where generative ai becomes good enough to literally do it all, and then we're all screwed. But let's assume that's not the case as it isn't today. It feels like there's no point of reflection. Do people just continue to value their time less and less? Does the problems we sell need to be THAT difficult? It feels like in a few years the only problems worth solving will be problems where we need phd level engineers to solve.
