Where's the fun in purchasing an app from Anthropic?
replyCo-working with AI is an important skill to learn these days. Similar to paying a bit for AWS for your personal projects as a good way to learn all the AWS tools for your career.
replyMeh. That's fine if you really don't want to build things, and are mainly concerned about increasing your market value.
replyIf you like creating, buying software from Anthropic is boring as hell.
What is the skill that needs to be learned? I've been forced to vibe code everything at work, there's no skill required to ask Claude code to do something.
replyI think there's a difference in using claude code at work to resolve issues or user stories which are patching existing software and already define what is trying to be solved and what the acceptance criteria is versus using claude code to build something from scratch, where you are acting as an architect.
replyIt leaves more room for skill expression when you're making architectural decisions, defining scope, and designing the application.
But I thought LLMs democratize development?! Now AI is a “skill” that you have to pay for? Shocking!
replyThey’re way more powerful than you except. I’ve recently rediscovered them and I really couldn’t find a use case for a custom iOS app that wasn’t covered by them.
replyIt’s tedious but likely possible.
replyIf you really want to engage an LLM to help point it towards Cherri (https://github.com/electrikmilk/cherri) to help with implementation
