A great example of how being able to write code more quickly doesn’t translate to business or user value.
While the number of apps in the App Store has exploded given the rise of AI coding tools, the number of apps with 10 or more user ratings is actually plummeting.

@carnage4life My question is, how many people now have exactly the tool they need and didn't have before? Bespoke software that perfectly fulfills your needs is pretty valuable, even if that doesn't translate into micro-transactions.

i have not seen numbers or graphs on it yet, but a similar tendency emerges in the #startup scene - which somehow in many places is seen as a valid indicator for #value or #impact
on a recent hackathon i heard that you can now launch 10 companies a day, as #agentic #AI will take care of all the necessary steps.
Essentially, it becomes #AI slopping for and to itself.It might be time to give all this its closed network somewhere, where humans dont have to witness.

@carnage4life Yeah, I guess that having to put some efforts in building apps used to made people to be sure it was really necessary to build one before, if there is some need for them. And to create some qualitative stuff, where you think a bit about the UX.

@carnage4life
Have you met anyone who is able to communicate their needs?Not what they want, but was they really need?

@carnage4life reminds me of a statistic a lecturer showed us in a architecture lesson on code quality. On average, only 1/3 of the code in an application is actually used regularly. We never needed to write more code, we should stop writing useless code. No wonder drinking from the code firehose doesn't do anything.
