Nice an actual controversial take. Im glad more people are getting into coding because of AI honestly. Anyone can code (not just a saying).

Me im impressed sometimes, but its only good for scripting languages. Start getting into compiled or anything beyond templates and it falls on its face.

Anyone who is willing to invest the effort in understanding program flow can code.

That was my experience a few months ago as well, but recently I've actually been using it almost exclusively with rust, the extra type safety and language safety features have helped a lot with the end code quality.

Claude in particular has been really impressive with compiled languages, it does take a bit more hand holding to get something workable out than with javascript or python though.
