Will Developers think like Uber drivers in future?
Now its 2024. Vibe coding is here. Its like telling the computer to make what you want - mobile app, web app etc and it will create for you. You do need to know some basics and sometimes a lot more than basics depending on what your idea needs to come out and feel alive.
Even I, I am also learning this. I am vibe coding. I have no clue about anything that is happening in my code editor.
OK let me cut the crap and acknowledge what my mind is thinking now. Coz it is always thinking of an idea or when I notice something I want to do this little thought exercise in my head to see if something is worth experimenting.
My Thesis: If first world developers will have some extra time and solid knowledge of how to make things for web and mobile then they will serve a future need which does not exist yet.
Thousands of people need some assistance with tech stuff and if developers/engineers have free time and know how to use AI to code then they can satisfy this future demand. Right now the demand is there but its linear & predictable.
In future I think that developers/engineers will be able to create things with AI with zero effort.
For them it will be like: "knowing which screw to turn and which part to optimize". It will be effortless for them.
So the question is: Who is ready to a build a category/market out of this?
I love marketplaces. I love to make tech which enables people to earn extra income from their skills & time.
