We used to think the world changed quickly...apparently, we’ve only just started.

My team is developing software frameworks in days, with clean, well-structured code, that would have taken several months without using AI.

I’m shocked on the monthly at the latest capabilities. The limiting factor is thinking up what you really want. Anyone that thought there’s “too much tech already” is going to be really disappointed.

I remember reading a science fiction story about a civilization that went from essentially our Egyptian/Babylonian/Roman Empire level of knowledge to nuclear power within a matter of a few years and they destroyed themselves...............

Using Claude Code, I’ve developed three personal health apps to do things no commercial app has done for me (hiking physiology, sleep, glucose analysis). The “time to market” and code quality is outstanding. I can iterate ideas for new features and areas to explore in nothing flat.

I have an “addressable market” of one — me. I had the ability to write these apps pre-AI, but just never wanted to invest the time. My time invested is probably 2% to 5% of what it would have taken me to write them from scratch without AI.

It is truly astonishing.
