The answer is that we're making it right now. AI didn't speed me up at all until agents got good enough, which was April/May of this year.
Just today I built a shovelware CLI that exports iMessage archives into a standalone website export. Would have taken me weeks. I'll probably have it out as a homebrew formula in a day or two.
I'm working on an iOS app as well that's MUCH further along than it would be if I hand-rolled it, but I'm intentionally taking my time with it.
Anyway, the post's data mostly ends in March/April which is when generative AI started being useful for coding at all (and I've had Copilot enabled since Nov 2022)
