I personally feel like some of the AI hype is driven by it's ability to create flashy demos which become dead end projects.

It's so easy to spin up an example "write me a sample chat app" or whatever and be amazed how quickly and fully it realizes this idea, but it does kinda beg the question, now what?

I think in the same way that image generation is akin to clipart (wildly useful, but lacking in depth and meaning) the AI code generation projects are akin to webpage templates. They can help get you started, and take you further than you could on your own, but ultimately you have to decide "now what" after you take that first (AI) step.

Which we already had, it's just a 'git clone https://github.com/whatevs/huh' away, or doing one of millions of tutorials on whatever topic. Pretty much everyone who can build something out of Elixir/Phoenix has a chat app, an e-commerce store and a scraping platform just laying around.

LLMs are easier to use than git.

>>ljspra+jT1
Why do you think that?

>>cess11+RU1
I've had to use Git a few times for classes. There are commands to be learned right? I forget them.

>>ljspra+2Qb
Why? Unlike LLM:s it's a deterministic tool you can use, that doesn't use you.
