So the same thing the rest of my sentence gave credence to, the part you deleted?

My immediate reaction was, "Only 7?" but that may not be a fair thing to think, depending on what the constraints were.

The shift I've experienced is something akin to being able to finally focus on the aspects I've always enjoyed most: architecture and user experience. I review all the code, but through iteration my prompts have gotten better, and for the most part my automated codemonkey 'employee' produces good code. It's not reasonable to expect complex things to be one-shot; UX improvements always require follow-ups, and features need to be divided and conquered one at a time. Engineers who lack those higher level skills will struggle. You are leading a small team now, not just plugging away at implementing user stories.

Can't wait to sell my artisinal hand-crafted software at the farmer's market.

Humor aside, long-handed programming is losing its ability to compete in an open market. Automate or be left behind. This will become increasingly true of many fields, not just software.

It would be a lot simpler to only sell standard devices to adults. Kids should be using devices with curated access to specific tools and platforms meant for children.

FTA: "Ethical Use Safeguards

Built-in checks prevent processing of inappropriate content, ensuring legal and ethical use."

I see it claims to not process content with nudity, but all of the examples on the website demo impersonation of famous people, including at least one politician (JD Vance). I'm struggling to understand what the authors consider 'ethical' deepfaking? What is the intended 'ethical' use case here? Of all the things you can build with AI, why this?

paranoia and conspiratorial thinking does not lend itself to trusting others, so could go either way. e.g. paranoid people do not feel safe getting close with people.

Rocket-powered delivery vehicles would be pretty exciting though.

Yes, take a look at Ken Stanley's web presence:

NEAT: https://www.cs.ucf.edu/~kstanley/neat.html

HyperNEAT: http://eplex.cs.ucf.edu/hyperNEATpage/HyperNEAT.html

There are explanations, links to the research papers, and links to implementations.

neuroevolution strategies are another approach to games, for what it's worth (since you said 'only').
