When my brother suggested I use AI to create my website I didn’t believe I would even know what to ask it. He was curious to see what could be done by vibe coding. Being a web developer maybe he wanted to see what was coming for his job too. Once I saw it I had to try.
I was amazed at what I could do without having any coding experience! The ability to experiment, build, and solve problems myself and not have to ask someone else to do it was invaluable. My game would not have been ready in time for football season if it wasn’t for the direct access AI gave me to my project.
I now have a new perspective on AI. I don’t believe the future is in AI making decisions for us, but in empowering us to make more decisions ourselves, and experiment, and explore! The future of AI is in the millions of people who have a crazy idea and would normally listen to their friends when they tell them to stay in their lane. And yes this will result in a lot of AI Slop. But that slop will be the fertilizer for brilliance! Inspiring people to think maybe I could too. And then one person will come out with something that we all didn’t know we couldn’t live without!
As I wait to see what the world will think of my idea…
I wonder, am I the flower or the fertilizer?
Can I be proud of both?
