It's great to be amazed by this stuff, but it really just shows how poor human intuition is at these things.<p>> Imagine envisioning Airbnb, and having its whole frontend and backend done within 1 minute.<p>...sigh...<p>You're seeing the tip of an iceberg, and you're like, "wow, it's cold"... but you honestly have no idea.<p>Any tool that you spend <i>less an hour using</i>, you have no idea about.<p>That's it. There's nothing more to say.<p>Use it for longer. Try building larger things. Give me a considered opinion when you've formed one, not a reaction video.<p>There was a spate of this kind of article when chat-gpt first came out, and at the time, it was like: why are we seeing these "I spent 10 seconds with a LLM and I made a potato!" and "I spent 20 minutes with an LLM and made a one-page HTML website!" articles, and none of the "I spent a month with an LLM and build a new programming language", or "I spent two weeks with an LLM and I build a raytracer" articles?<p>Oh they said, "It's too soon, give it time... it's only been out a month. 3 months... 6 months...".<p>You still don't see them.<p>...because they don't exist.<p>No one has done anything impressive with this stuff; it's fundamentally limited in what it can produce, and the massive productivity benefits you see (30x faster!) are for <i>trivial tasks</i>, not <i>difficult tasks</i>.<p>...and the modest productivity benefits you get from using an actual copilot don't make articles that are nearly as interesting to get as many clicks.<p>Look, AI can seem magical, but when you have something that seems too good to be true, after using it <i>for an hour</i>, or even a day, maybe it's not the right moment to drop a blog post about how gosh darn amazing it is?
