3 Lessons We Learned Working with AI

1. Demos are built very quickly

Spinning up a demo is a breeze nowadays thanks to the help we can get from AI. Rather than using static templates, you can now create a new working project from scratch in minutes.

Once it's running, it allows to validate ideas before investing time in building them.

2. Tools keep changing, just pick one and stick with it for a while

While AI is not taking over the world just yet, the way it has changed software development is already significant.

Rather than spending hours researching the best tools for the job, we recommend to start a project where you can explore how AI works and see firstand how fast you can move but also how you get stuck in some areas.

3. The secret is in the details

The code that AI generates is a good starting point, you then have to polish it with your specific needs and preferences.

For some types of projects, it's going to be great to have AI help you spinning up a new site based on some initial instructions. Once it's working, your job is to focus on how to address the user needs and be the guardian for the quality of the code.
