AI will not replace you. A person using AI will.

Great engineers wielding AI is so much more than vibecoding

Truth: AI coding models are good for code execution, but not good at planning. If you let AI plan next step while coding, it will mess up the codebase. You can solve this by attaching a detailed "Implementation Plan" Here's how I create my plan: ↓

The flutter_ai_providers package, with plug-in support for the flutter_ai_toolkit, now includes support for access to local llama LLMs via llama.cpp: pub.dev/packages/flutt…

When our parents graduated from college the half-life of the knowledge they’d learned was about 30 years. When people my age graduated from college the half-life of knowledge was more like 10 years. Today, for anything anything even close to AI, it’s less than 1 year.

Noticing myself adopting a certain rhythm in AI-assisted coding (i.e. code I actually and professionally care about, contrast to vibe code). 1. Stuff everything relevant into context (this can take a while in big projects. If the project is small enough just stuff everything

Gemini is really good at coding tasks now. It’s amazing how quickly things flip in the AI coding space. It’s hard to predict what the landscape will look like even in the near future

The more AI scales, the more your edge becomes knowing what not to automate.

🎯

The awkward reality of AI is it’s already automating away many junior roles but must be wielded by a highly skilled, generally senior person (for now). Not sure what that means for the future yet.

It’s very normal for the most senior engineers to be the last to adopt AI. They’re the best at writing code and craftsmen, so experience the steepest drop in productivity transitioning to AI before they master it. Takes a lot of time for productivity with AI to be at parity.

A real-world story about how we adapt to the AI era, not by resisting it, but by harnessing it: a high school English teacher was frustrated that her students were using AI to cheat in writing their essays, so she turned the tables. She assigned the students to go home & train

Let's gooooo! Amazing work by amazing people — working on apps and on race cars — changing the game! So proud of our partnership with Trackhouse Racing and our team at Very Good Ventures 🦄💙 for the hard work and dedication innovating the fan experience in motorsports. Multi-platform

Or that doesn’t allow them to use some AI dev tools at all due to bureaucratic nonsense

One thing I get to see running Gauntlet AI is that there are some phenomenal engineers who are just, for whatever reason, absolutely abysmal at interviewing
