AI is a Tool, and a problem

AI the Tool

I have been using AI for a little while now.  I have had it help me create an Architecture for a complicated app, as well as some of the details of that app.  I have used it to create APIs for other apps, and SL code to create tables.  It has been saving me a lot of time in development.  I have become more efficient and effective as a programmer.  I even played around creating a blog article.  It is a pretty obvious AI article (Cloud Computing).  I doubt I will be doing any more of those as that wasn't a great article.  I am leaving it up as an example, though.  

It has also helped me with one of my weakest parts of development, UI/UX.  I can make a front end, but it is usually not a very intuitive one.  Enter Bolt and Lovable.dev (affiliate link). They may not be the best or fanciest designers, but they make my apps look far better than I ever could.  They also allow me to include my own API calls, so they do more than just a basic website.  You can build a front end to a complicated backend, as long as you have some patience.  

Using these in combination with ChatGPT and Github Copilot, I feel there is nothing I can't get done on my own.  And that is where the problem starts.
