HN 用户谈 vibe coding 版 Photoshop 的二阶效应:平台支持还重要吗
Vibecoding Photoshop: Time and pressure
作者认为,与其追问 vibe coding 生成的图像工具能否替代 Photoshop 这类第一阶问题,更值得考虑二阶效应:当 Photoshop、Word 等产品 90% 的功能都能被个人应用替代时,成本和平台支持的门槛将大幅降低,平台本身的重要性也会随之下降。
作者跳出现有工具能否被替代的第一层问题,提出个人应用普及后平台价值下降的二阶推论。
I think people aren't thinking enough about the second-order effects of this.
The immediate reaction is to ask whether any of these would be good enough to replace Photoshop (or Pixelmator or whatever). That's a first-order question and it's an open one --- you probably couldn't replace a real workflow with vibe Photoshop today, but I wouldn't bet against that being the case a year from now.
But the second-order questions include consideration of the people who can't use Photoshop, either because of cost or (to me, more importantly) because of lack of platform support.
In a world where 90% of the functionality of things like Photoshop and Word are replaceable with personal apps, how much does platform support matter anymore? How much do platforms matter anymore? I'm a committed macOS user and have been since the TiBook. Will I be 5 years from now? I'm deeply uncertain, but one thing I'm pretty sure of is that if I'm not a macOS user, I also won't be a Windows or Linux user.
