This article tells me the author is not that creative. With LLMs, the number of projects I create increases by 1000%.

So for you the point was going from A to B - for me the point is the process for going from A to B. We have different interests. It's not the number of projects - who cares - is the impact every project on you while you build it. At least for me.

I think that is the real bottleneck now. Creative people used to be hindered by execution, now you can aim higher.

I keep trying to get the product people I work with to do personal vibe coding and they haven’t yet. Feels like they should have more ideas than I do.

Being creative and creating things are not the same?

		Isn't being creative a requirement to create things? The author complains that he can't do the basic things that LLMs now take care of. And I am saying that if you really have a creative mind, you can come up with 1000s of projects every day and enjoy bringing them to life very fast. For example, I wanted to build my own note-taking app for a long time because I got sick of Obsidian. Now I built my own, and it is magnitudes better than Obsidian, at least to me and for my use. I built smart home systems with Claude because, without an LLM, it would be too time-consuming to troubleshoot APIs and read all the api documentation. I wanted to test a TTS model, and it took me 10 minutes waiting to test it without reading the documentation. I use it for everyday random creations all day long. Instead of one tiny project consuming all my week, I can now work on all of them in hours. My /srv folder has over 100 projects of my own, and some of them are parent folders to smaller dependency projects.
