AI Tooling

“Today with AI tooling, like, you can write code a lot faster, but that also means, like, your debug cycles are a lot faster and so you spend a lot more time up front now, or it's prudent to spend a lot more time up front, you know, assembling all of your hardw…”

“I don't want to say infinite, but for me, it's a question of opportunity cost. We're in a competitive environment. There's so many things that we can do, and the cost of not doing it is extremely high. It almost outweighs any sort of token cost.”

“What we thought would take us a year to build out all these channels with this new tooling, we're understanding, okay, we can probably build all these out in like three months.”

“Even with AI tooling that allows Developers who know how to write code to move even faster, it still doesn't, it doesn't make all parts of the process faster. It doesn't mean you're able to listen to customers faster or to figure out the right things to build …”

“We might be looking at more profitable law firms in the future that run on leaner teams. You know, this is like, I feel like we see this conversation playing out in, in tech, the idea of the you know, one person unicorn company. And I think we're gonna see tha…”

“I'm short on the entire category of like tooling around AI AI products.”

“That's where the AI automation piece comes in, where it's like, you don't need to hire a graphic designer. You don't need to hire a video editor. Like all of these things can basically be handled by a lot of these AI tooling, this AI tooling.”

“Most developers have adopted some form of AI tooling into the workflow already, while other knowledge workers, other white collar workers are still early in that adoption journey.”

“I know that that's probably not the answer most people want, but I don't think, like, at this point, I have been able to successfully use AI tooling to help me find those ideas. It's just, like, it's not something I feel like is outsourceable yet.”

“And I think that's the gap has grown so much now between the frontier of the level of productivity that you can achieve as an engineer as the median practice of the median engineer, especially in big companies that now employers have no choice, but to just lay…”

“Online financial fraud is going up at somewhere between 20 and 25% a year off of a gigantic base. Deep fakes are having a big impact on this. A lot of AI tooling is having a big impact on this.”

“Absolutely. I think, like, no, any company that's gonna say, oh, we figured out what we're doing with AI, I don't think they're, I don't think they figured it out.”

“Shovel selling is overhyped, but I think the thoughtful, you know, discourse on what our society will be like in 10 years is probably under hyped.”

“All of this AI tooling is going to give these like super ICs, these captain level ICs, even more leverage in solving problems and their creation abilities as part of that. And so I think in the future, what we're going to see, and I'm not the first one to say …”

“If you can do code generation, you can do malicious code generation, right? And just like other nation states and hackers are going to use every other tool out there. If they write code, they're going to write code with AI tooling.”
