    It’s all an illusion. You don’t need Claude to create, the ability has always been in you

      You also don’t need higher level programming languages. The ability to code assembly has always been inside you.

      Claude doesn’t have the ability to create images, it’s mainly used for work

        Sometimes work requires images. Claude is pretty awesome at making .svg files illustrating - pretty much whatever you can describe.

      I don’t need Claude to create, the ability has always been in me - but it comes out much more slowly without tools that assist me, whether that’s books with example code, websites that document APIs, community sites that discuss problems and solutions, web searches that bring me reference material related to what I’m doing, or AI agents which propose formal requirements and code that implements those requirements complete with tests.

      It’s all my “creativity” - but a lot of professional programming more resembles painting a house than a still-life canvas. Painting a house using tiny art brushes is possible, but it takes a lot longer than using a spray-gun.
