My experimentation with #ChatGPT #Gemini + programming has been a mixed bag:
Pros:

  • It often gets it right the first try
  • It's faster to change the prompt than edit the code
  • it can explain code fairly well

Cons

  • I can ask the exact same prompt and get different code that WONT work!
  • After several iterations, the code just stops compiling
  • I frequently save revisions of files so I can upload a working file and iterate from there.
  • It's SO SLOW to wait for it to type out

I've been wading into code/APIs I have zero experience with and making remarkable progress. I'm thinking of it as creating a good starting tutorial.

I'm still giving it fairly tiny utility programs (I am just prototyping crazy stuff) I'm not building anything complex. But as a #UX Designer the fact that I can build a working prototype in #javascript or #processing so damn fast is remarkable.

Once you've learned the basics, it's actually pretty easy to make working web UIs using the standard HTML/CSS/JS stack.
The most time consuming part is getting it to look good, but that's why basically everyone uses tools like https://penpot.app/ to prototype designs first.
The other thing is doing it enough to have an intuitive sense of how things should function, but it just takes practice.
Doing it yourself will produce better results faster once you get the hang of it :)
