Are we talking about the same thing? I was referring the point in the interview when Eric says that ML will help make software development teams smaller.
I was imagining some bit of AI that had figured out the best way to download asynchronously. Or the best way to layout a UI with code. You could maybe describe a process using natural language & it would just create a best attempt for you. You could then modify or steer it.
Seems doable, but I don't see how you'd need big data from massive numbers of users. And seems very interesting given that APIS and what they can do is much more finite than the physical world.
- dekhn 11y agoFinding the best layout of a UI using a machine learning algorithm is an example of what I meant. In theory it means you don't really need a UX team or a UI team alongside an engineering team. I went back and re-read the interview and I believe I'm channeling Eric properly.
- codecamper 11y agoI'm very much interested in these things. To remain competitive indie developers and the open source community will need to apply these methods as well. I hope to see some publicly available tools soon.
