@chrisbeetweets I think the shift will lean towards the ideation layer less towards execution. I think the larger question will be if that increases tools needed two fold or reduces them.

I read recently that only 31% of product leaders feel confident they're building the right thing. Honestly? That number feels high. We have more data, more AI tools, more feedback channels than ever before. And most of us are still making gut calls and hoping the next sprint backs us up. The job hasn't changed that much. We just have fancier ways of being uncertain now.

My current take as having worked in AI for some time now is I'm not worried about it taking developer jobs. Honestly, I've never been more excited about what's ahead for people who decide to lean more technical. The barrier to building real things just collapsed. Someone who would have spent years learning to code before shipping anything meaningful can now get there in months. That's not a threat, that's an opening. High level languages made code 10-100x faster to write. Developers were supposed to disappear. Instead we got the largest software boom in history. AI is just the next abstraction layer. Binary didn't kill developers. Assembly didn't. Python didn't. The hiring freeze isn't AI. It's COVID overhiring and nobody wants to tell their shareholders they got greedy and made a mistake. The scope of software about to be built will dwarf everything before it. The jobs are coming. If you've been sitting on the fence about going deeper into tech, this is the moment. Not in spite of AI. Because of it. "This time is different" is the most recycled wrong opinion in tech.

The spec surviving contact with execution is the whole game. As a PMM, I've written briefs that felt airtight and watched agents build something technically correct that missed the point entirely. The problem isn't the spec. It's that nothing forces the original intent back into the room when it actually matters. You can't politely ask for good output. You have to make bad output impossible.

@artman @linear This is sick. Reviews are where context goes to die. Anything that keeps the loop tight (diff, CI, convo) is a win. We’ve been focused on the stuff before the PR so the review is boring in the best way.
