Just learn how to code, then you will learn how to use Generative AI to be a very productive developer, you can't build anything with AI prompts not unless you have some basic programming skills because 20-30% of the time, Generative AI will give you the wrong code.

Banks are buying messages in bulk at around 0.8 KES, it's their work to send alerts to customers, but then the co-op goes ahead and sends an alert for KES 45, and by default, you are subscribed to these alerts. Now imagine how sad it is for people who are not even aware
