id love to be a billionaire
mikert89··on Mark Zuckerberg creating new Applied AI engineering company, reorganises teams
People seriously underestimate how many founders were just right place at the right time/had their startups pumped full of VC cash. Meet some of these unicorn founders in person behind closed doors and it will throw you into an existential crisis
mikert89··on AI doesn't replace white collar work
hard to tell if its click bait or if these people cant project into the future
mikert89··on Google just gave Sundar Pichai a $692M pay package
have you ever been in one of these mansions? my hot take is people seriously underestimate how great being rich is, and how enjoyable some ocean side mansions are
mikert89··on Autoresearch: Agents researching on single-GPU nanochat training automatically
this is why big tech is spending 500B on GPUs

As ai improves, most tasks will become something like this. Environments setup where the model learns through trial and error

Any human endeavor that can be objectively verified in some environment like this can be completely automated

mikert89··on GPT-5.4
I personally like the 100 dollar one from claude, but the gpt4 pro can be very good
mikert89··on Humans 40k yrs ago developed a system of conventional signs
Its wild how far off a lot of the mainstream "consensus" takes on this are.
mikert89··on MacBook Pro with M5 Pro and M5 Max
Yeah I have an M1 Max, and I really want to upgrade, but there’s no reason to.
mikert89··on OpenAI raises $110B on $730B pre-money valuation
I love how people think the company that basically invented ai is going out of business. Clearly OpenAI is a massive success and will continue to be
mikert89··on Code has always been the easy part
nah youre missing it, if time to build takes 9 months, you better get the product right.

if time to build takes 2 months, just build it and iterate.

or just rebuild the product to the customers liking...

mikert89··on Code has always been the easy part
I strongly believe that this is a false and outdated take.

Code being the easy part was predicated on how long it took to build a product, and the impact that had on product management, sales, and marketing.

When the time to build collapses, all product/sales/design/martketing mistakes are forgiven. You can pivot so fast, that mistakes in other domains dont matter as much and are reversible

All of the axioms we previously held true need to be rethought

mikert89··on Claws are now a new layer on top of LLM agents
once the models get smart enough, you wont need n8n, they will just do the workflow without it needing to be specified. this is coming pretty soon
mikert89··on Claws are now a new layer on top of LLM agents
dude nobody cares about school prestige, the whole value in openclaw was that its an innovative idea, not that its written in Rust
mikert89··on Cord: Coordinating Trees of AI Agents
yeah i think sub agents are needed, missed that in my comment
mikert89··on Cord: Coordinating Trees of AI Agents
all of these frameworks will go away once the model gets really smart. it will just be tool search, tools, and the model

in the short run, ive found the open ai agents one to be the best

mikert89··on I’m joining OpenAI
If the ai model gets better, more and more Saas can be replaced with an agent with an excel sheet
mikert89··on I’m joining OpenAI
Is an agent running on a desktop, with access to excel, word, email and slack going to replace Saas?

Add in databases, browser use, and the answer could be yes

This could be the most disruptive software we have seen

mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
no i think we are a year or two out from this, and i see glimpses of it daily
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
you realize ive written some of the pytorch source code?
mikert89··on Claude Code is being dumbed down?
Of course, agentic tooling is the future of ai
mikert89··on Claude Code is being dumbed down?
The model is being trained to use claude code. i.e. the agentic patterns are reinforced using reinforcement learning. thats why it works so well. you cannot build this on your own, it will perform far worse
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
My true opinion is that your questions posed here, may become irrelevant in the face of super intelligence
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
People aren’t mentally prepared for the LLMs spitting out flawless code
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
Libraries are really built for human beings, not super intelligent machines. ORMs are built because I don’t like to and can’t write complex sql with every edge case.

Same with a lot of software, software libraries are designed to work with the deficiencies of the human mind.

There’s no reason to think ai needs these libraries in the same way

mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
It read the library and created a custom implementation for my use case. The implementation was interoperable with a popular nextjs with library. It was a hack sure, but it also took me three minutes
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
This take is just an intermediary take until ai takes over software engineering. In the same way, eventually self driving cars will make human drivers look dangerous

I think your thought process is not taking into account what a super logical ai can do, and how effortlessly it could generate some of this code.

mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
It’s actually not a ridiculous concept, but I think in some ways code will go away, and the agent itself will do what the code used to do. Software of the future will be far more dynamic and on the fly. We won’t have these rigid structures
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
Yeah I actually think the very concept of software will see agents affect out. Agents will do what you used to code. And it will be automatic
mikert89··on Software design is now cheap
Importing a library for everything will become a dated concept. Similar to the idea that object relational mappers might go away if the ai can just write ultra complicated hyper efficient sql for every query
