This is just insane…

My GPT-4 coding assistant can now:
- build and design a frontend
- create a backend with working db
- correctly hook them up
- upload code to GitHub
- deploy it to Vercel

I can now build *complete* apps with nothing more than my voice.

The future is here!

Imagine a generation of young Ghanaians who have been empowered through a GSTEP- led STEM programme. Imagine the possibilities in healthcare, education, scientific discoveries, engineering, manufacturing...the possibilities are endless with GSTEP!

interesting watching people start to debate whether powerful AI systems should behave in the way users want or their creators intend.

the question of whose values we align these systems to will be one of the most important debates society ever has.
