Maybe I’m seeing shadows in the clouds, but it seems like AI means a lot more people have been building open source tools.

I’m an AI skeptic, but I’m wondering if this can help undermine some of the shit software industry. Most AI tools sold by companies have an open source alternative.

I’m thinking that maybe AI will accidentally allow the private person to build free tools and reduce the market value of sold tools.

    it seems like AI means a lot more people have been building open source tools.

    TBH I haven’t seen this. AFAIK I’m still using the same open source apps made by the same people. I haven’t seen a single “AI” app that I would add to my stack or replace an existing app with.

    Are there some examples of some great apps that have been built with “AI”? Like a list somewhere?

    Personally I would really like a clone of GarageBand for Linux. So if an “AI” can whip that up real quick, I would really appreciate it.
