It's so weird how it looks like frontend is the first thing that CEOs are trying to automate away because in my experience, all frontier models are excellent at building infrastructure given a solid design, but absolutely NOTHING can get them to build out non-trivial user experiences correctly.

I've been working on inputs that are enhanced with WebGL flourishes for 2 days, given explicit implementation details, and it's been days of back and forth of the thing not working. "Oh, sorry, I see my mistake, this is definitely the fix" No, man, you have definitely not fixed anything.

Assuming API billing prices, these services are more expensive than a junior engineer (or two, or three, or five). You can clear $35k a month if you parallelize many streams. At that price, if someone, with that much confidence, was consistently wrong, I would fire them immediately.
