- nmehner 2y agoAI might be nice to generate stuff. But as all code generators it has the issue of supporting the generated code long term. With AI it is even worse: You don't get reproducible runs: Trying to fix a simple layout bug and suddenly some updated AI generates something completely different because it learned some new tricks and you cannot go back to what you had before and suddenly the whole page doesn't work anymore? Sounds like fun!
- frde_me 2y agoYa, even claude artifacts have replaced scripting for me to some extent. For example, if I need some data transformation thing "Create a web app that takes text input and does X, Y, and Z". It's correct for me 99% of the time, and the remainder I can trivially ask it to tweak something. (especially since for those kind of one-off tools, I really don't care about the actual UI and styling) Beats figuring out the right incantation of JQ, regex, whatever other tool I only use every 3 months, ... every time. And I can trivially just go back to that artifact and iterate on it later.
