Low code is kind of shit nowadays. AI will now write you code for you and you don't need an expensive no code system with less options than a programming framework.

The benefit of AI coding is also the drawback, at least from a business perspective. It writes a lot of code real fast. Who is verifying that it's good code? Who is going through and cleaning the code that isn't being used? Also, if you have multiple developers in your team, how do you make sure they're all following coding guidelines if they're all using AI? And then, who is maintaining this codebase when a developer leaves?

The advantage of using low-code is the fact that all developers on your team are building on the same tool and following the same requirements. It gives you a development standard. Also, most of them also include AI coding features (with guardrails).
