He created a flight simulation game in three hours using the AI (the code editor to the cursor), put it online, and currently would have earned about $ 100 thousand. Ok, take a step back. Pieter Levels He is an entrepreneur, he founded many startups that have gone well, less well, and evil, and so far there is. However, the speech is another: now anyone can become a programmer and enrich themselves with the AI?
First of all, Pieter Levels had an important boost from those of Boost (and Booster), Elon Musk, who informed his 220 million followers about X. has informed the video game you can access free on Fly.pieter.com, and try it. You don’t expect who knows what, it is certainly not Microsoft’s Flight Simulator, but it is interesting that in three hours Levels made a game that has become viral and profitable. Interesting above all that codes can now be written (also of video games) without having the slightest computer base.
Are serious developers worried? Some yes, others don’t. Max Yankov said: «I have never felt safer my future as a computer engineer. What Levels did for a fast prototype, but because it works well it will take an effort one hundred times higher and a thousand more code lines ». With the advancement speed of the AI, however, this gap could be filled faster than expected. In short, how many things can be done with the AI without having any basis of nothing? They begin to be many, and we are only at the beginning.
Do you want to make graphics? The Ai thinks about it. Do you want to write an essay on something you don’t know anything about? The Ai thinks about it. Do you want to trade online? The Ai thinks about it. Do you want to publish videos on YouTube, and don’t you know what content to put? The Ai thinks about it. Don’t you want to appear in the videos? The Ai thinks about it. Do you want to organize a trip? The Ai thinks about it. Attention: AI is an epochal technological revolutionand his uses are countless and mostly positive. But as with everything will depend on those who use it and how.
On Instagram we are invaded by videos generated with the AI, so invaded that they also begin to tire. Also Marco Montemagnowhich is passionate about technology and on these themes it thinks every day, it often appears perplexed. On the story of Pieter Levels recalls that the entrepreneur has failed many times (not in a negative sense, those who experiment sometimes succeeds sometimes fails), and making the message pass that now we all start playing games in three hours is exaggerated and wrong. As well as everything, moreover. Levels’s is a successful experiment, but how many do you think they will continue playing that online flight simulator? However Levels gained. Of course, there is nothing wrong, he did not cheat anyone, in case he created a starting point for reflection on the vision of artificial intelligence increasingly perceived as an trick to be able to achieve what would not have been capable otherwise.
Because, after all, the popular and viral narrative on the web seems to be this: if you are not able to do anything, don’t worry, it will do it for you. I am not worried as a writer: nobody will be able to write my novels.
But perhaps genre narrative yes, it can already do it, as well as for an essay. If you have never read a book in your life, the Ai will read them for you, he will write your book that you would not know how to write, and then … and then, my lady, if you read it the AI.
