Can we (Drupalistas) compete with an AI Website Builder?

I'm speechless. And in awe. And maybe a little bit scared.

Through a bit of an odd synchronicity I have just come to learn about a new technology that is getting ready to make its debut. And, while the term "disruptive" gets totally overused these days, I do think that this particular technology may have the power to disrupt my livelihood.

I don't know whether to celebrate this technology, appreciate this technology, or update my resume. At any rate, I just signed up for TheGrid. It's kind of mind blowing.

Will it really be possible for an AI website builder to replace me as a web developer? Can it replace my skillset of building custom web applications? What types of websites will it be able to build?

Looking at their information, they say that the tool can automatically create an eCommerce site. I haven't seen anything about it being able to create a membership site. So, maybe I shouldn't get too panicked about this. I'm definitely going to want to keep an eye on it though.

Why don't you take a look for yourself and see what you think? Then leave your comments below. I'm anxious to hear what you have to say!

Yowza!
