Generative AI Accelerates Coding for Developers But Has Limitations for Citizen Developers Using Low-Code Tools
-
Generative AI can help professional developers by accelerating the coding process, allowing them to focus more on design.
-
For non-developers, low-code/no-code tools are still better suited than generative AI. These tools enable citizen developers to create apps without coding expertise.
-
Integrating generative AI into low-code tools could make them more powerful, potentially bridging the gap between low-code and no-code.
-
Building software requires more than just generating code, like architecture design and maintenance. Current AI has limitations in these areas.
-
Generative AI helps make low-code more no-code by providing templates and models, democratizing development for a wider range of people.
