Yeah but the business seems to be education for web front end. If you are going to shun new tech you should really return to the printing press or better copying scribes. If you are going to do modern tech you kind of need to stick with the most modern tech.

Printing press and copying scribes is a sarcastic comment, but these web designers are still actively working and their industry is 100s of years from the state of those old techs. The joke isn’t funny enough nor is the analogy apt enough to make sense.

    No it is a pretty good comparison. There is absolutely AI slop but you have to be sticking your head in the sand if you don’t think AI will not continue to shape this industry. If you are selling learning courses and are sticking your head in the sand, well that’s pretty questionable.

      Maybe ot will. I'm still waiting for the utility. Right now it's just a big hype bubble, so wake me when it pops.

        It’s almost a trope. You have one one end of the spectrum people like yourself who have nothing to say but it’s a hype bubble and there is no utility. On the other end you have folks making YouTube videos that they are building 100 apps in a day using LLMs. The truth is somewhere in the middle and I think to dismiss it like yourself is missing the boat that is sailing off.
