Fellow excited. Sol has been revolutionary for me. It’s been the first time I’ve let a model “go ham” on a production code base and it actually worked, and also didn’t bankrupt my company in the process.

I’m far more excited for the trajectory that OpenAI has chosen. I’ve been listening to mates whose companies adopted Claude wholesale, only for their AI use to become a double digit percentage of their salary.

I get that AI is a force multiplier, but that level of expense isn’t a path to mass adoption.

Honestly, this feels like a real revolution now in a way that 90s kid never really experienced. We grew up with technological progression, we never experienced the obsolescence of skill.

The internet revolution made for more skills and innovation, it didn’t obsolete entire careers. My kids are almost certainly going to grow up knowing less but being capable of more.

Imagine being a 1950s “human calculator” on the dawn of a computer revolution. That’s what it feels like right now.
