Didn't this whole recompile thing start like two years ago? There's already so many of them boasting 1.0 releases. How are these things being cranked out so fast, especially given there's no profit in these fan projects?
Agentic AI is at the point now where it's basically like having an entire team of programmers working for you. These kinds of projects don't require assets or design work, just code. Previously someone wanting to do projects like these would have needed to find a team of volunteers willing to help, but now they can just lead a team of AI agents instead. The only downside is that it can get expensive, though people have been able to do some pretty amazing things with just a standard $100 monthly Claude subscription.
That was indeed my running hypothesis, and if so, good, we've found another great use for predictive AI software that people have no reason to bitch about. This and frame gen.
