My buddy made a music software, with synths, effects, visualizers, etc. with Claude and Codex.

For him, the bottleneck very much was the code. He still doesn't know any programming.

I want to say that his ability here has been accelerated by orders of magnitude, but without AI he couldn't have done it at all, so it's actually a divide by zero situation.

(Yeah, he could have just learned programming... and audio engineering... and the specifics of JavaScript ... and the web audio API, and the DOM, and WebGL, and his demo would be ready in like, 2030.)
