Can AI-powered vibe coding challenge established software companies? Photocraft and other Adobe application clones spark a discussion of their capabilities, legal questions, and the possibility of creating customized software. A live download offers a closer look at the applications. The conversation also explores the Swift Angels developer meetup, LinkedIn’s growing importance for professional networking, and generational differences in technology.
The panel includes Chuck Joiner, Jim Rea, Guy Serle, Eric Bolden, and Marty Jencius.
