> how will this basic functionality translate to the rest of the app? It won't. It certainly will lead to fun and productive conversations like “it’s already working right there! Why is it going to take so long to get it into the app?!? Can’t you just download it?” Since well before GPT there has been an argument for making very early prototypes/mocks more obviously lo-fi, such that their visual polish is proportional to how functional they are under the hood. Beautiful, seemingly “working” UI-only prototypes have a way of setting unrealistic expectations even with clear communication, leading to a higher probability of proto-duction.
