The tech isn’t there yet.
Yet.
I’m not sure LLMs can really handle that level of complexity, including graphical assets and all that crap.
Plus, it needs the seed of creativity that brings something fresh that isn’t going to come from an “AI” that regurgitates everything.
Slop will remain slop. I’m not sure LLMs are a pathway to a Trek-esque post-scarcity lifestyle some of these tech bros are dreaming of, but they’re interesting none-the-less.
