How To Keep Building Side Projects in AI era?
Video description
How do you stay motivated to build projects when AI tools are taking over more of the coding?
Building projects is an essential part of the indie hacking journey. But as a software engineer, it can be difficult to keep going when AI is changing the work that made you excited about building software in the first place.
In this video, I share an approach to staying motivated and continuing to build in the AI era. I break down the problem, explain my solution and why it works, and discuss what matters most as I move forward with my indie hacking journey.
Has AI made you more excited to build, or made it harder to find motivation? Share your experience in the comments.
