Yes, completely agree. I actually used to be a developer (long ago) so I have the bases, and am able to figure out when it's suggesting something stupid or diagnose any bad decisions, and that is definitely helpful. However in this particular test I wanted to see if I could get a fully functional product without looking at a single line of code and, well, it worked. I'm not saying it's not necessary of course, and I think people who can get the basics will be able to go a lot farther, but man the tools have gotten just so good it's empowering (and slightly terrifying frankly).

Amen to that, definitely both sides of the spectrum. These tools make things incredibly accessible and empowering for many people. At the same time, it does make me wonder: will we, as humans, become a bit “dumber” by relying on them so much? A bit philosophical maybe, but these are fascinating times we’re living in.
