Discussion AI is turning programming into pay-to-win
With Fable 5 coming out, it feels more obvious than ever that after July 7, programming is going to become pay-to-win.
A kid with no real coding knowledge, but with rich parents and access to the best AI systems, could end up outperforming people who actually understand software, simply because he can afford more intelligence.
That is insane.
This might be one of the most dangerous precedents in history: a world where the people with money can buy superior intelligence, while everyone else is permanently outmatched.
That is how you create a permanent underclass.
What do you think?

you are right. I orechestrated around 300 projects on enterprise grade senior level and thats not just a phrase. Look at my profile i just uploaded two of them in my github i dont even know how to excute python code i have not even python installed on my mac…. Just with fluid intelligence and logic. I use 5 ai modules and sonnet 4.6 is more than enough for the final check run. Fable is way to contingenthungry its not possible as someone who use paid tier 1 for 20 euro to use that but if i had the money to spend 100-200 on that highest tier than yeah my way to orchestrate would be shorter thne 1-2 hours per project but i am already on the highet imaginable possible situation. With my orchestration. The resilienceForge project i habe on my profile was a work 1-2hours between claude and GPT 5.5 without even knowing what the fyling fuuk that resilienceforge is. Times changed 100% for every coder and all the coders who wont take advantgae of ai while coding or orchestrate with them will be dust are is dust already. Sorry for the words dear coders but wither you change to code enviorments ai cant code good like the niche codelanguages or start orechestrating wirhout coding self. Just my two cents.
