I have built several significant apps in VBA, C#, and Swift in the past, longhand, from scratch, using Stack Overflow heavily (thank you), but those days seem like they are ending very fast.
Nothing. Scarily. I just built an awesome image renderer that I will use for customized images for creative storytelling in my market research reports to clients, in 5 days, using Replit and several AI API accounts and probably $300 in credits. Would have taken me 3 months to do with writing source code, even in the early days of ChatGPT in 2023 which gave me starter code and fixed bugs. | Yes | Supabase | Supabase | Supabase | NA
Nothing. Supabase is a dream come true, and even that might not be necessary now that IDEs like Replit are available. | Yes | Google Cloud | null | null | NA
I literally just closed my Google Cloud account before taking this survey. The stuff I do is not complicated enough for something like that and SupaBase is awesome for a high-touch interaction, and Replit might even replace that. | Yes | WordPress | null | null | NA

I prefer Grok 3 as my daily driver, and hope they improve on the grok-2-image-1212 API soon. Anthropic and OpenAI are way too Woke, though Grok also has issues with this too. X as a corporation aligns best with my personal principles and would love to use xAI APIs for my AI-fueled apps, but the performance is not there in the image creation/editing/visioning space. (All my apps have an image component so I am kinda locked into DALL-E and ChatGPT because I like integration.) | Yes | Less than once per month or monthly | Between 10 and 15 years | Infrequently, less than once per year | Chat (people);Message Boards;Long-form articles;Videos;Lists of recommendations (tools, frameworks, technologies, etc.);Direct messaging of users;Job board;Chat (bot/AI) | Ask a question

As an Improvisor, I love tools like Replit, because I can build something almost immediately, and then slowly learn about the architecture, coding languages used, frameworks and APIs used, and source code, as I debug.
It is totally ass-backwards. I only learn what I am doing after doing it.

AI can not reason about the effect of different coding decisions, and this leads to a lot of unmaintainable code.
I predict that a lot of software will reach MVP and v1 releases, but then be so bogged down in the tech debt that has been generated by AI and not fixed or refactored properly that applications will die out before they can reach a v2.
So I believe that refactoring, both how and why we do it, will be one of the most important general skills needed for developers.
Additionally, I think software engineers will need to start learning to find solutions outside of code.
AI can generate code. It can't tell you when the solution is something other than more code. | 201,000 | 7 |
