All the time i do it. I will often provide claude with read only credentials to the db or api access to the logs and it will nail the problem almost every time
I could be building a game, a home blog, any sort of OSS.
The point im making is that crypto exists purely as this alt investment, trading tokens to get rich. Im skeptical its actually being used as a currency in any real currency-fashion. But now seems to be stuck in pump and dump schemes.
Meanwhile, AI is enabling people right now, today, to help build and learn things they normally wouldnt do.
I mean besides crypto and ai being big investments, i barely see any parallels. AI you can actually use to build useful things in the world , and tokens are used not as trading , but transactional currency to do that building.
Last paragraph resonated so deeply with me. Especially this:
```It’s also not the typing of code that I really enjoy, nor is it the syntax or structure or boilerplate that’s required to build anything. It’s the fact you get to build something out of nothing, writing code was just how you got there. And with today’s tooling, that saves a ton of time.```
I never really related with folks that code for beauty or are put off by how AI does the actual coding. The beauty is actually creating something, solving real problems, shipping, and (hopfully) winning. It might be cliche, but it is incredibly true for me to say that using AI feels like a superpower.
This type of experience was literally the main driver of me getting a Quest 2 at the beginning of covid. Its remarkable how FEW experience there are like this out there.
Unless theres a similar situation where there is a similar protest for those causes, and Google does not fire them, then you are just making an empty hypothetical.
