I really believe that the front-end part can be mostly automated (the html/CSS at least), copilot is close imho (microsoft+github, I used both), but really they're useless to do anything else complex without making to much calls, proposing bad data structures, using bad /old code design.


The frontend part was already automated. We called it Dreamweaver and RAD tools.


Thank you, now I realize where I've had this feeling before!

Working with AI-generated code to add new features feels like working with Dreamweaver-generated code, which was also unpleasant. It's not written the same way a human would write it, isn't written with ease of modification in mind, etc.


Copilot is pretty bad compared to cursor with sonnet. I have used Copilot for quite a long time so I can tell.
