In which case, if LLMs can perfectly one shot simple programs, creating and maintaining a really advanced program would presumably be very cheap since it could just one shot every feature. So instead of generating new image editing programs for every task, why not pay $10/month for the guy who spent a week guiding an LLM into making ultra photoshop with every feature Ill ever need?
replyPerplexity just launched a tool that builds and hosts small bespoke tools.
replyI tried it works wells. I can do the same thing in my Linux machine, but even my 12 year old now can get perplexity to build him a tool to compare ram prices at different chinease vendors.
Yes, LLMs can be a better search tool.
replyIt makes sense if you want bespoke software to do a specific job in a way best suited to your workflow.
replyCould you do the same in eg. Photoshop? Maybe, but even if, you would need to learn how.
Photoshop is a good example -- not that I agree with everything in the app, but just to design all the interactions properly in photoshop would take hundreds of hours (not to mention testing and figuring out the edges). If your goal is a 1-to-1 clone why not use Krita or photoshop? With LLM you'll get "mostly there" with many many hours of work, and lots of sharp edges. If all you need is paint bucket, basic brush / pencil, and save/load, ok maybe you can one-shot it in a few hours... or just use paint / aesprite...
