DHH really sees a future where instead of people working together to make good software, everyone will instead use their own private slopware written by a chatbot that is customized specifically for them.

I don't see how this is an improvement?

@SuperDicq The commons are like farms and orchards and whatnot, they produce the building blocks for people to use

People then take some of those and go ahead with creating and remixing them into their own, very personal meal

If you make it hard for people to make and remix their own meals they will generally run for the nearest fast food restaurant slop

I just feel like quite a lot, if not most, of the modern software scene - regardless of licensing matters - have failed so badly in the "letting users (esp. less technical ones) to remix and create their own personal computing environment" department that to them, prompting "AI" to churn out slop feels like a genuine improvement in the state of affairs

But then again, what do I know :shrug_akko:
