Ever since I started building apps with AI-powered no-code tools this year, I've been enjoying being an active participant in the conversation about how non-technical people like me can create software. About six weeks ago, I participated in a podcast with Ray Myers, the Chief Architect at All Hands AI. We covered a lot of ground, including:The 24-hour testing window: How I built the web version of my app, MuseKat, in a single weekend without coding myselfRunning an org with AI execs: Using custom GPTs trained by persona helped me manage a dev team as a non-technical GMRapidly prototyping multiple app versions in one weekend: The power of no-code builder modules to rapidly deploy feature prototypes.Security breaches and the risk of attacks: The time I unknowingly installed spyware planted by my own company’s security team, and reimagining the new "white hat hacker" in an AI era.Seizing the moment the build: Why how no-code building opens a new prototype of a founder (and why we should all be leaning into that)You can tune in here:
