1/ If @OpenAI Codex and its future clones will be able to allow non-developers to create POCs from plain English descriptions, it will be a huge victory for ideas, and for all the people that didn’t or don’t have the chance to learn how to code.

In the immediate, the point is to let users watch TV without being profiled or controlled @Gruber. In fact, I wish Apple could release a
HDMI stick version so I could use it in more situations.

Longer term, I suspect, the point is having a game console. https://t.co/i2S0qiefKl
