That's what's running Salesforce right now.
And into that fray, you throw one more tool, which is this, you know, LLMs that can help you out with your coding process or whatever.
And honestly, I don't think it changes the nature of the product.
It is still a stapled together.
So for the size of Manhattan, it's just that people aren't manually putting the staples in anymore.
And who knows, maybe if this stuff continues to advance, we'll be able to shape that down to something that looks closer to that hand-assembled piece of furniture.
But characterizing the pre-LLM age as we were all hand-making these beautiful turned pieces of things on our lathes is not accurate.
Even my dinky little programs are not that.
And they have like 30,000 lines of code.
So that's why we programmers out here are excited by this.
Because again, if I can find a tool that will find me one additional bug that it couldn't find before, that tool has value to me.
Except perhaps that you're liking it better because that's up to you.
We have some questions about that in a future episode, so we will talk about that.
I know people have sent in a lot of stuff on that.
Casey just did it with his N8N thing.
It was not worth doing if he had to write all that code himself.
But now that he has a tool that can help him, suddenly it becomes worth doing.
Like internal tools to test out ideas, just mini apps to try out ideas for things.
I don't feel that at all.
