- AI-generated tools can make programming more enjoyable by enabling rapid creation of custom debug UIs.
- Using an AI-built interactive debugger, the author quickly identified bugs (e.g., infinite loop) in a Prolog interpreter.
- The fast turnaround and easy iteration of AI-assisted UI development helped the author stay focused on the main task.
- Custom UIs built with AI can turn limited AI capabilities into accelerants for advanced programming tasks.
- The experience highlights the dream of malleable software: creating tools tailored to immediate needs at the speed of thought.
