Today’s post is a short note
I feel equally terrified and equally excited about the rise of LLMs.
After hitting the weekly limits for codex 5.3 on the $200, I was shitting my pants whilst being hooked as 13 year old me playing Age of Empires. It is hands down the most powerful coding model. It unlocks long running agents and the concept of Code Factories.
What seems unthinkable is suddenly acceptable the next week!!!
A few weeks ago, I read this article by Geoffrey Huntley about the Overton window https://ghuntley.com/overton/
Think right wing vs left wing politics. Why do you think something is acceptable whilst another person not?
Human psychology extends to new technological shifts. NEVER BEFORE has the rate of change and disruption to tech work been this fast.
This is a great mental model and learning. In this world your goal should be to move new ideas through your own mental model from:
unthinkable → radical → acceptable
That’s it for today.
Cheers friends :)
