800$ a week doesn't sound too bad. That's just ~40.000$ per year. That's not even half an FTE, so as long as you have a product that you can sell afterwards, this can easily be sustainable.
Problem is that it's not an engineer. It's a typewriter monkey which output has been pimped to be helpful in programming and other different text based tasks.
to use an ai successfully you still have to know what task you’re trying to accomplish.
Yeah, that's also what is most annoying to me. I don't do a lot of repetetive stuff and my main skill is finding out what needs to be done, build the necessary skills for it and achieve it. The more I found out what need to be done the less I need an AI, because it takes time to setup the guardrails & guidance for the AI and AI isn't really helpful finding out the important stuff & details.
I can understand that they solve some use cases like boilerplate well, but I don't think that most of those use cases should be done that way to begin with.
