It baffles me that so many people are so willing to pay for the privilege of training their own replacement.

But are you though?

From where I stand this thing is going to provide great leverage to those who don’t simply just write code. I personally doubt the thing will ever get to a place where it can be trusted to operate alone - it needs a team of people and to go super fast you need more people.

Moreover, the price won’t be high due to competition.

I’ve changed my view on LLMs as being good, as long as competition is fierce.
