But it is interesting that they are not using their own product to build it…..since “you don’t need developers anymore”
Don’t get high on your supply I guess. Just like Zoom forcing RTO.
Yeah, that one got me. If I was Zoom, I'd force people to work remotely, to iron out issues in the SW.
True
Well crap, I was using windsurf (codeium).
Here are some points to consider:
- Distribution: The focus isn't on distribution, as OpenAI has a larger user base.
- Talent: The emphasis isn't on the team, since they specialize in UX rather than ML search.
- Why not vibe coding it? Likely because the true value lies in the data rather than the user experience: the actions each user takes to resolve or build code.
Desperate to generate some kind of return for their loser gamblers (aka "investors").
