Yes, it’s true that the AI tools will write code for you that works. But, it only works for non-coders for very small projects and apps. Things the AI tools can write on a single page such as a small calculator or similar. Why? Because for larger projects you need to be able to understand the code and the logic behind it. The AI tools will create the code for you, but you’ll have to treat them like a junior coder and coach them to get a good result. That takes time. You’ll need to test almost as much as you would if you wrote all the code yourself. The AI tools can write great code much faster than a good coder would, but not in a single pass. A case in point is the WordPress plugin I’m working on at the moment. It has taken a couple of days to get it done. I’ve been testing a great tool that was designed for coding, I think you could create almost anything with this, but building web pages is really a bit beneath it’s capabilities. It can build them, but tools like ChatGPT, Claude, DeepSeek, etc. also do these easily. You don’t need a sledge hammer to crack a walnut, a nutcracker will do the job just fine. But a nutcracker won’t break up concrete, you’ll need the sledge hammer for that job. Use the right tool for the job or the job will take much longer than it should. Regards, |
