The value is obviously to the people who will use this to replace engineers.

I would happily pay $200 a month for this. Luckily I dont need to, it's free.

Literally every game and website that I would have had to pay someone else to make I can now make myself. There's no value in that?

A year ago the best free LLM couldn't even give me a basic gridmap and collision. Now it can give me a full RCT style prototype & editor in 20 iterations.

I can only imagine what improvements we will have NEXT year!

Ponder that for a minute.

There are over 2 million games, for Android alone.

That you weren't making games before the advent of LLMs makes it cool for you to build, and at no cost. But people have been able to make games without them and already grew the market to saturation.

If the outcome of LLMs is that we get more games, it won't imply that people will consume more games. Most games never get played anyway.
