There are many choices, it's like a buffet! In the video I mentioned bolt.new and Replit.com. Then there is also Cursor.com and various VS Code extensions which have their specific use cases. If you want to explore the differences and learn how to set them up and use them, check out the course: artanddesign.tv/courses
AI in coding is primarily used to boost productivity by automating repetitive tasks. Basically, if you ask multiple artists to draw a box with four balls inside, each artist will create a unique interpretation with various styles, colors, and forms. You will see different types of boxes and balls and maybe some of them will even draw backgrounds. But if you ask an AI to write a piece of code that places four different elements from an array inside a component, there are only a limited number of ways to achieve this. With coding, you’re essentially telling the computer what you want it to do, as long as you understand the basics programming language (you need to know what to ask and how to interpret what the AI gives you). for coding you are basically using the AI as a translation layer, no different than using google translate to see how to say something in another language, the translation may not be perfect, but it is still good enough and useable. if you do know the other language you might use that translation google translate gave you and refine it further. AI in art tends to reference and mimic existing artists, copying their styles, colors, and forms which is bad, it is copying things that are personal. In coding, however, AI follows established best practices and standards to help translate your goals into functional, usable code.
Good point! I work with software developers every day and they seem to have no issues with using Ai to generate code. Most have embraced it at this point. I think the statistic was something like 50% of code submitted on Github is Ai generated. There is so much more to programming than writing code (same is true for art and drawing pictures). It's all about the customer experience and the value that you are offering. I think the main difference here is this: Code is just instructions for a system to operate. The code itself is a means to an end. Same can be true for artists who integrate generated art into a much larger customer experience. But selling an Ai generated picture and claiming it as your "work of art" is wrong. But ultimately we have to make up our own opinion on this. I don't think it's healthy to blanket hate a specific technology. Technology is just a tool that can be used for good or bad. Judge the intent and outcome.
This is cool. But I’m not sure if you said the software name?

so AI is ok for code but not art, what's the difference? 🤐
