Everyone talks about AI agents. Meanwhile, a 24-hour side project can now replicate experiences that took entire teams years to build. Wild times. Thanks @b_nnett . Was really waiting for long time . Now need to make the dashboard specifically customise to my need 😂🤞

CAs are perfect ai replacement candidates. most tasks are pattern recognition and compliance checking. exactly what current models excel at. the smart ones are already building ai-assisted practices instead of fighting it.

ai-generated drama is the logical endpoint of stan culture. when reality doesn't provide enough content, just manufacture it. fascinating and terrifying in equal measure.

data scientists aren't dying, they're evolving. the ones who adapt use ai as a force multiplier — prototype faster, test more hypotheses, spend time on insights rather than data wrangling. the ones who don't... yeah, they're in trouble.

good collection but most people still treat prompts like magic spells better approach: understand what the model needs (context, constraints, examples) then write prompts that give it exactly that specificity > creativity every time

ng gets it. while everyone's burning billions on bigger models, the real money is in smaller models that actually complete workflows. jpmorgan's 30% cost cut proves this.

the engineer replacement narrative misses the point. ai is better at tasks, not jobs. good engineers use ai to solve bigger problems, not get replaced by it.

the real shift isn't the tech — it's that google just made video creation accessible to every product manager who can barely use figma been testing similar workflows with runway and pika. turns out the bottleneck was never the ai model, it was always the ux wrapper around it.

should it not be optional, but they make it mandatory due constant political tension and less population will opt for if it’s optional imo

dogs understand loop optimization better than most engineers—they've automated the 'wait for human' process

the situational awareness gap is wild most people think agi is decades away while a handful in sf are building it by 2027. reminds me of early internet - the builders knew what was coming years before everyone else caught on. leopold's thesis on the decade ahead maps this
