AI builds it in ten minutes, then comes the work
Everybody’s showing you the ten minutes. Nobody is showing you the three weeks after.
▶Play the video: AI builds it in ten minutes, then comes the workEverybody’s showing you the ten minutes and calling it the whole project. Nobody is showing you the three weeks after.
It’s true that AI gets you to a prototype quicker than ever. You can make something in ten minutes. Then you have to make it work. You have to connect it to APIs. You have to talk to people. You have to bring all the data in. That’s the bit we still do in this office, and it takes weeks.
It’s the same thing nobody realised about websites. The website was never the work. It’s everything around it: talking to the client, collecting the resources, refining it, making something that stands the test of time.
AI has taken a lot of the building away. The conversations haven’t gone anywhere, and they’re still the only way to get the best result. Whether people are ignoring that, or social media is just skewed towards how good AI is, I don’t really know.
There’s more on where AI helps and where it doesn’t in can AI build a website?

you can you can do it in 18 minutes in cloud, but then you have to make it work. And and that's the bit that we still do in this office that takes weeks. Oh yeah, we can make we can make something in 10 minutes, but now we got to speak to APIs, we got to speak to people, we got to bring all this data in. It's it's it's the same thing that nobody realizes with the same thing with websites. The websites was never the work, it's everything around the website.
Now the website isn't the work a lot of the time because of AI, but all the other around it, like these conversations we're having, is still the only way you get the best results out of it. I don't know if it's just people willfully ignoring it or it's just social media is so skewed towards people saying how good AI is. I I don't really know which one that is.
