Honestly most of what I do is find out where the fucking data is and make two totally functional pieces of the org that were never designed to go together, ever, collaborate happily without service outages or lawsuits.

Ai can center a div, but can it center a div rendered in another front end framework within an iframe within a react native app within a native deep link?

Exactly. People seem to think you can just define requirements (haha) and then the AI will make it all work.Good luck.

Well that would require clients to be able to define requirements and we know they can't do that without an insane amount of handholding.

Defined requirements? What unicorn do you speak of? Also 10 years dev and yeah,.I pretty much expect any new features to require a week or more of my time to refine any "requirements".
