Kent C. Dodds Opinion on AI in Web Dev
summary
Predicts web developers will stop training models and instead build MCP servers — Model Context Protocol endpoints that become the replacement for the website — wiring apps to LLMs rather than being model trainers or ML engineers. Claims there’s strong momentum behind MCPs and a “Jarvis” interaction shift, but warns the UX is immature and far from production quality, so lots of engineering work remains while UI still matters to avoid “chat everywhere” experiences.
