Many of you are failing to conprehend the potential scale of AI generated codebases. Take note - there is no limit. Every feature you or the AI can prompt can be generated. Imagine if you were immortal and given unlimited storage. Imagine what you could create. That’s a prompt away. Even now you’re still restricting your thinking to the old ways.

You’re sounding like a religious zealot recruiting for a cult. No, it is not possible to prompt every feature, and I suspect people who believe LLMs can accurately program anything in any language are frankly not solving any truly novel or interesting problems, because if they were they’d see the obvious cracks.

    Which in no way contradicts my point. There is still a chasm of difference between a tool which can aid with a majority of issues and one which can solve everything, which is what the commenter I replied to is preaching.

You're talking ahead of the others in this thread, who do not understand how you got to what you're saying. I've been doing research in this area. You are not only correct, but the implications are staggering, and go further than what you have mentioned above. This is no cult, it is the reorganization of the economics of work.

Think about this for a second E = MC^2 + AI A new equation for physics? The potential of AI is unlimited.
