alt Hacker NewsMaybe for developer tooling, but on the consumer app side I think it's the opposite: MusicKit is much more valuable than Music.app now, because Claude can one-shot most reasonable things you could ask it to do. I think there's actually more value in ambitious libraries than there was 5 years ago, when any serious use of a library entailed a minimum 5-figure investment of time.
I had a pleasant experience one-shotting a dashboard on top of a library designed for building dashboards. Because everything was abstracted away, the chatbot had relatively few places it could get into the weeds. If I'd asked for the same thing from scratch, I think the result would have been more inconsistent, and would have had more bugs.
So I can definitely see the value in a library for constraining the chatbot to some well-worn paths.
