Sharing this not because it’s about AI/LLMs but because it’s solid advice and the recommendations work equally well for *people* coding web applications (funny that, almost like these things were made by people for people or something).
TL;DR: Use web and platform standards; don’t reinvent the wheel.
@aral Hmm, I found that text so hard to read due to bad formatting and weird effects that I gave up even before the condescending tone got to me.
But I agree with the TLDR.
@aral
I don't understand why he's using AI. Sunk fallacy cost? This sounds awful. Unpredictable results, expensive. If you wanted to work with an opaque black box - why not just get into SEO?
Everything he's describing here is just inherent to the technology.
@aral Some of these points are quite thought-provoking.
I will also now consider LLMs a junior dev that has just emerged from hibernation and missed the last five years of progress.
