I don't think people are going far enough. There will be no code in 5-10 years. > Jensen Huang CEO of NVIDIA said: “Every single pixel will be generated soon.

I don't think people are going far enough. There will be no code in 5-10 years. > Jensen Huang CEO of NVIDIA said: “Every single pixel will be generated soon. Not rendered: generated” (https://x.com/icreatelife/status/1639363377255309328?lang=en https://x.com/icreatelife/status/1639363377255309328?lang=en) If we take this to the extreme, user interfaces are going to be generated on the fly, specific for the user. They will adapt to the user based on the device they are using, time of day, what data is being displayed, what the user prefers, etc. These large models generating views might be streamed from servers (ala stadia), it might pass off some of the work to edge devices. The models will be able to store things and communicate with other models as needed. Models might spin up that perform certain things well and have access to specific resources.

Yeah... no chance. There will be no code in 5 years. What a joke. Even if it were technically possible (it's not), the idea that the humans involved would be able to make it happen in such a short amount of time is laughable. Seriously, think harder about what you're suggesting here. It's ridiculous.

  Dude chill, it's a thought experiment based on how things are moving right now. Maybe i'm off by a magnitude of years, who cares. Whether it happens in 5, 15, 50 years, it's going to happen.

    You didn't present it as a thought experiment, and it's also not something to treat flippantly. If it happens, it will be because we achieve AGI and nothing less. I know it's in vogue to think that's 5 years away right now, but we're not remotely close and it's also in no way inevitable. If it does come to that, whether or not there is code will be the least of our worries.

      The article of this post is a thought experiment. Totally fair about the timeline and AGI requirement. Throwing around Elon-like estimates over here.

    Who said so? It might not happen at all. We might well be coding in a thousand years, why not? Non-programmers seem to not understand that a programming language is just that, a language. We use it just because it is more productive than using plain English, which now with LLMs is becoming a better tool to program. But prompt engineering is still programming and that won't change in a thousand years.

      The idea that programmers won't want to code, or that artists won't want to art, or that musicians won't want to music, is absurd. Creativity is one of the most rewarding things a human being can engage in, just because corporations would prefer to pay for shitty, broken hallucinated code or art doesn't mean humans will stop doing it for their own satisfaction. This concept obviously flies well over the heads of the LLM/AI/AGI bros who think that our creative lives is going to be rendered obsolete by vegetable silicon. They lack creativity and imagination.

Imagine a company trying to offer support to interfaces all tailored to a specific user. I can imagine a future where this is viable, but it will def be a longer time span than 5 years

  Yea, timeline is likely way too optimistic.
