There's a whole world of opportunity that lives below complex multi-tenant applications that have to deal with high TPS.

> At least at present you're positing there's no need for carpenters because the home gamer can knock together a table or birdhouse at home.

This is an extreme, straw man argument. And here's the thing: I don't know a home gamer who framed a house. But I do know tech-savvy people who have used AI to build web apps that they have launched and been able to get customers to pay for.

Not every tech-savvy person has the ability to do this but the whole "you can't do that if you're not a software developer" argument looks to me like a denial mechanism more than a reflection of reality. People are doing it because the AI tools have advanced to the point where they can.

Why is anyone paying for these apps if any idiot can do it with a few prompts?
