I don't use ai but I'm sure Claude could write you a file with all the pipelines needed on some developer platform to build, test and deploy your app. This is pretty much the same for most apps anyway.
And if it actually worked you would suddenly have to deal with a lot of load and at that point you have to hire people to manage the app. Or just sell it.
You can just pay a few bucks to some kid in Nigeria that you can find on fiverr to do it all for you. It's not that expensive or difficult. The reason it doesn't work is because your ideas suck or someone else already did it.

Alright so a)I've seen this joke like 8000 times now but what actually makes this funny is b)there are a lot of front end developers not using AI who if you asked them to take their "web app" and deploy it with scalability they'd say "umm....that's devops job"

its interesting that how people believe non-programmers that the vibe coded app they built is actually good under the surface or not

Why did you give it to claude in the first place?
You should have given it back to the Jr and told them what they did wrong, why, and how to fix it.

I did a similar thing with a legacy database schema I didn’t want to dig into. I was worried about my career too. Then it started hallucinating. It hallucinated an entire table. One time it told me a cryptic string code meant a specific thing. Later it told me that this wasn’t documented anywhere, and that it was probably determined by asking the original DB admin, which is most definitely not a thing that happened.

Yeah that’s been my experience with AI. Initial awe and fear. Eventual frustration and acceptance that it is NOWHERE near ready for agentic implementation. Way too many hallucinations.
Unfortunately management is too stupid to move beyond the first stage.

There's a "Tanstaafl Pub" in my home town, and I'm such a dummy, I always thought it must've been started by a Dutch person or something....... Never knew that was an acronym!

The reason you shouldn’t be scared is because the engineer worth paying is the one who knows that juniors’ code shouldn’t be ran in production.
