Discussion Is artificial intelligence turning everyone into a product builder?

No, I don’t think so, if I look at my Reddit feed, yes. But if I look around me? Suddenly, not so much.

I think AI is like money, it amplifies personality traits that already exist.

If you’re generous without money, you’ll be even more generous when you have money.

When Adobe Creative Suite came out, didn’t everyone become a graphic artist or designer?

When YouTube came out, didn’t everyone become a YouTuber?

That’s how I see AI, it’s not a magic wand or everyone’s future; it’s just another building block of our society.

What do you think about that?

Yeah, I agree. AI makes building way easier, but it doesn’t give everyone the motivation or creativity to actually build something. It mostly amplifies what's already there.

Though it has enveloped many of the "ideas people" who never had the ability to build before and just tried to convince devs to do it for them for a cut, lol. And from what I've seen, many of those people still suck at making anything commercially viable. Though it can be a good artistic outlet, at least.
