  • AI is eating software

    AI is eating software

    In 2011, “Software is Eating the world” by Marc Andreesson. Now AI has a huge appetite for software. It’s likely a financial bubble, but AI is gaining momentum in the software world and it’s coming for the regular world. Here’s a quote from a power user:

    I have not had this much fun with a computer since I learned BASIC on my Apple II Plus when I was 9 years old. This opinion comes not as an endorsement but as personal experience: I voluntarily undertook this project, and I paid out of pocket for both OpenAI and Anthropic’s premium AI plans.

  • A Couple Productivity Ideas

    “The starting point was that I wanted to do more with voice—as of last week I was still typing notes like a troglodyte.

    The average person types 40 words per minute but speaks at 150 WpM, so voice allows you to pass much more context to your AI in the same amount of time. And the more nuance you add to your AI instructions, the better the quality of the AI-generated output will be.

    Alibaba launched Qwen3-Coder, a high-performance open-source AI model designed specifically for coding. It provides a strong, freely available alternative to proprietary AI models and AI coding tools.”
