honestly, highly highly doubt this. there is nothing revolutionary in most engineering, and its even easier when the product is already robust and just needs to be maintained
- klabb3 2y agoThis has been the argument for every CMS and no-code solution ever. 80% of apps are just crud. 90% maybe! We can just anticipate all the needs and have plugins and drag and drop builders. Coding will be restricted to just a small set of senior engineers working on core framework development. Just watch! Any moment now.. And they were right, in a way. Frameworks excel in the early stages of application development. Drag and drop, click to create a database, it all works. But ask even small sized companies if they keep using it after 1 year, and the answer is often no. If it is yes, it’s usually all building custom things to work around the limitations of the framework. Or, it is a simple product/site with no further needs (but they are rare). Anyway, AI for the full development cycle! Any moment now..
- codingwagie 2y agoThis is completely different than past technology, and is a novel human advancement on the level of the internet
- klabb3 2y agoSure it’s different. But the point is early stage development is not the hard part. LLMs so far perform well within training data, which there is a ton for crud. We can’t say how it performs maintaining projects yet, it’s not clear it can be pattern matched in the same way.
