alt Hacker NewsI want to make better software, not more software. Making software development faster isn't necessarily the goal. Making it better in the many, many ways that matter (of which speed is just one part) is.

I'm looking forward to the making of more software. I think there are probably people who have had really useful software ideas for a long time that they'd never be able to raise money for, but now for $20 a month, they can get up and running, serving their local and/or niche communities, without having to hire a team of engineers.
Eventually we're going to reach a point where they don't have to understand the code themselves. The democratization of software creation is going to be fascinating.
There is more software to be written than there were programmers so lots of people do indeed want more software, for example small tools and one off projects that aren't worthwhile to make pre LLM.
