I get annoyed enough when software I use changes arbitrarily in ways that don't benefit me, I can't see LLM vibed software that changes itself based on what it thinks I need being an improvement at all. It just feels like it would be even more annoying.
There’s no reason I really need those four different apps on my phone with a login and ads and tracking and 100 page terms of service.
Claude can write them for me today. It’s be even better if I just ask my phone for them and they pop up in a couple minutes.
In an almost ironic twist, GUI will revert back to a "CLI".
- aesthetic print quality
- dimensional accuracy
- strength
- ease of removing supports
- reliability of printing
which resolve to two values which estimate:
- print time
- volume of material used/consumed in supports
You use different infills to optimise for each type. This differs per model. An AI can surely help optimise it but it won't always know which one to prioritize, it requires knowing exactly what the printed model will be used for.
The same with aesthetics, usually you care about one specific side. And for ease of remove, are you willing to use support interface material? That makes a lot of difference.
I’m really curious why I’m getting downvoted here. I fundamentally think that software is about to become 1000x more customizable and it’s a problem for the existing app model.
If I’m wrong, I want to know why. The thread seems to have a bias against AI slop (totally understandable), but in my experience it can one shot simple and functional apps today, and the technology will likely be able to make much better apps in the near future.
