Everyone had a chance to learn vanilla js from the mozilla docs but using jquery was much much simpler. Concede that jquery is more difficult than prompting. The issue for me is that prompting a front end and everything looks exactly the same. More cookie cutter than what wordpress and wix offered

Right. So we are stuck with the jquery and wordpress forever. Because this is THE cookie cutter and it's good enough.

But situation was exactly the same before the AI. You would still get your wordpress, your React frontend and Java Spring backend.

AI doesn't change anything, it just takes the job of a poor slopper who made a living by coding React frontends. Anthropic just took their job, that's it, and you don't see the difference.

		Oh don't me wrong, it's bad and we're going to suffer through terrible web apps for the foreseeable future spat out in the 1000s per day. Like all slop songs, images, videos and articles. Hardly a reward for building something artisanal in the digital space
