I’m no developer, but I got the AI part working in about an hour.
What took longer was the other stuff: identifying the problem, designing and building the UI, setting up the templating, routes and data architecture.
It reminded me that, in order to capitalise on the potential of AI technologies, we need to really invest in the other stuff too, especially data infrastructure.
It would be ironic, and a huge shame, if AI hype sucked all the investment out of those things.
