LLMs are decent if what you are trying to do is in the training distribution. They suck otherwise.

80% of stuff on Nostr here is. (Not sure if that is good for innovation) and even then you can see the tons of rough edges.

For the rest, 20%, like scalable infrastructure, good UX, good relays. AI cannot fix that, only competent developers can.

And Nostr is having a hard time retaining competent developers I think.

With the amount of hype-driven development, “specs” changing constantly, and low quality code, only few competent developers want to develop here.
