Has the cost of building software dropped 90%?

I am shocked by the number of people who are dismissive of AI, or have stuck to the whole copy and paste into a chatbot approach to development.

I'm finding this stuff, when given proper guidance, can reproduce experiments I've run incredibly fast. Weeks of typing done in minutes of talking to Claude Code.

In the working world, a lot of the time what matters is getting results, not writing 'perfect' code the way software engineers would like to.

concerns: - security bugs - business logic errors that seem correct but are wrong

as long as you have domain experts, I suspect these will gradually go away. hopefully LLMs can be trained not to do insecure things in code.
