Explore automated stack creation on AWS using openAI #17

Open davidxjohnson opened 1 year ago

It was assumed that we would use Arduino Cloud to manage the devices because it would help us deliver faster. With the advent of OpenAI, that assumption no longer seems true. Let's explore openAI to speed up coding on AWS.

Progress report: The openai is very helpful in learning about a particular API or language in that it speeds up the learning process by generating useful examples (if you give it good instructions) rather than generic examples that you see in most documentations.

Openai often writes code that looks right but doesn't actually work against the API. This requires you to go search the api docs to find the correct resource names etc.

I find that the learning process is accelerated by using openai. I can iterate more quickly through the wrong design choices and ultimately arrive at a solution sooner. For example, I evaluated CloudFormation as one iteration, and then CDK and finally SDK. This all happened in days rather than weeks and months.
