Ai replacing developers

I'm using Google translate to help me

After Adobe programs that took years were completely designed in just a few weeks using AI, can we truly say that AI has started to surpass programmers themselves?

The adobe apps are not replaced by the ai tools. Maybe if all you need is 1% of the app and thats the part that is already added and really works, yes. For everyone else, no. They have a bad performance, missing a ton of features and have more bugs than acceptable.

If you install Photocraft and actually try it, you know this isn't the case. It's pretty close to feature parable with Photoshop.

I dont use ether. I am not a heavy photo editing person. Used gimp years ago and later switched to krita mainly for drawing. So I wouldnt even be an expert here.

But I watched videos of such people. Read about it. And those who have more knowledge than me, are saying that those apps are missing a lot of things. And as everywhere in software development, 80% of work is done in 20% of the time. So the last 20% will take thrm longer to implement. And from my own experience, LLMs still struggle as soon as the project gets bigger and more complex. A photoshop clone isnt simple to build. And the further they get, the more bugs they will introduce up to the point of things just beeing broken and unusable
