My work is requiring me to start using AI so I did an exploration this weekend.

I was blown away by how quickly I was able to get a working app. Full social media clone complete with persistence, video and audio playback, auth, realtime updates, and image uploads in about half an hour. I was then horrified by the quality of the code and how little I understood what the code was doing. I 10x’ed my speed, but in return debugging and editing was 100x harder and more time consuming.

I was also attempting to learn React Native and took note of how little debugging using the AI helped me actually learn the platform I was working with. I ended up abandoning the AI in favor of just learning directly.

The LLM just stitched together code from social media apps hosted on Githubs

Oh, is everyone saying it’s a bit because of how much I got done? It was specifically with convex and chef, which seems to lend itself well to AI generation. I don’t think you could do all that that quickly with a supabase backend, for example.

Yes probably. These Gen AI coding tools are incredible for simple 0-1 apps so I was just trying to explain that idk
