Another aspect Ive been talking about lately with the huge burst of AI productivity recently, is that its much simpler to point AI at the things that have been hanging out in the back of your mind. The things you started and got stuck. The bugs you sort of have an idea on but cant sit down and think through.

These are the obvious first targets to point AI at when onboarding. And it plows through a ton of the low hanging fruit. Then where are you after that? Suddenly productivity falls off a cliff and you are left in reality: good ideas are hard to come by and theres more to business than software.

The future is going to see an uptick in overall productivity for sure. And AI will tighten feedback loops enormously, in really positive ways. But current trajectories are already starting to come down to reality, and businesses are slowly realizing they still need to put in the hard work.

Unrelated: love your stuff. Ive gotten a lot out of your articles and I really appreciate you posting such well written content.
