Based on how easy it is to trigger cool-down or throttle on Claude Code, I think people know how to build with AI. Or they’re trying really hard to figure it out. The race is on and it’s wide open.

There are a lot gotchas with these new models. They get incredibly lazy if you let them. For example, I asked it to do a simple tally by year. I just assumed it’s simple enough I don’t need to ask to write a code. It counted first couple of years and just “guessed” the rest based on pattern it noticed.

Sometimes, it feels like having a lazy coworker that you have to double check constantly and email with repeated details. Other times, I just sit there in awe of how smart it is in my weekly AGI moment and how it’s going to replace me soon.
