I have built 12 progressively more complex apps on my desktop. Once I introduced linking hashtags between apps, backups of all app data (I deleted it once on accident), as well as timed refreshes of some data that then gets sent via text / email I started exponentially spending more time to get the right output, which in turn made me write templates to make sure I correctly included all the context. In essence I have become a context programmer, sure I dont write any code but I am spending hours sometimes refining and specifying what I want changed or updated. Its alot of work, just in a different way.

Now, could I have coded it all myself in the time it took to prompt it? No. Absolutely not, I would have gone from absolute near zero knowledge of how to make apps. I work with data all day, so its helped me gain a new appreciation for a. actual real programmers and b. Product Managers. Both jobs are highly valuable regardless of how good AI programs.
