I use AI to aid me in software development. Seen various posts where people have created full stack apps with AI and not writing any code. I’m curious about the support of those apps. What does that look like? Can you still get AI to upgrade/change those apps and add new features without coding?

Engineer. I still find AI tends to hallucinate a bit and you have to spend time checking what it’s done. How have you found it in that area?

I’m not sure they’ve got parking apps right yet. Some are better than others. The sign up process is sometimes the worst. I wonder if they user test their apps in actual car parks with poor signal on a rainy day.
