But, I just wish it didn't resemble a Lamborghini so much.
The unreleased roadster (2017) looked amazing. Tesla is capable of incredible totally original design.
I guess the first principles of what makes great Founders and great businesses from back in the gilded age to today have stayed the same.
Even when building with AI, I find it very useful to be picky about the details. Sometimes picky enough to go down to the code.
I feel like people who get the most out of AI tools are the ones who actually use it as a tool, and don't treat AI as the decision maker.
Only time will tell if this proves to be useful, but I think it's smart for the government to provide a great design and experience. It'll help them better serve their users i.e. the American people!
No other country outside the US and China really even matter when it comes to AI. Cohere and Mistral are important labs, but in no way do they make Canada or France significant in any way shape or form.
In 2026, Europe is great for a holiday. That's about it.
I'm keen to run it.
But as soon as I spoke with a few people out there, it hit my me like a truck. It's the concentration of the people who are literally building the future that make SF what it is.
I can't be the only one fascinated by this!
Most people, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was 90%, who've had any interaction with AI are still stuck on chatting with a chatbot. They've got no clue how far you can now go with a few well written markdown files and/or prompts, all in natural language!
So while I mostly agree on your outlook, and think it's super exciting, I've also felt firsthand that building with AI hasn't yet diffused as much I'd hoped it would. It's still concentrated in the hands of people who have an aptitude for building in some way, shape or form.
The question is: How do you get more people, who aren't power users or builders, to start building with AI? Maybe it starts with getting them to see that building to solve their own life's problems makes life more interesting?
but didnt deploy an agent anywhere. instead we wrote all the code, system prompts, harness, etc locally and just shared those files with the customer.
all the customer had to do is deploy what we provided them on their locally hosted models, essentially just had to add inference. and boom, started working on their systems!
I spent the last 2 days building basic AI agents to automate some mundane supply chain workflows for a large company. Those seemingly boring workflows had bank statements, supplier IDs and other sensitive information.
For me it was all alarm bells, there is no way they can afford to give closed models access to this data. I was compelled to figure out an open model based solution for them, which made me realize that this is probably the only way for enterprises going forward.
Gotta love a capable open model. BUT, how can they just casually throw in that they're actively exploring RSI as if it's just another technique? Is this not alarming at all?
I know economic opportunity isn't everything, but to me as Founder that's still a big appeal :)
