"If anyone says a strategic thing was easy, I'm like, 'You messed up. You could have gone way further. More competitive advantage. More differentiation. Get it together.'"

“The trait that matters most isn’t intelligence, or credentials or years of experience. It’s someone’s relationship with change—not whether they’ve seen change before, but whether they run toward it.”

Mockup of how would @AnthropicAI's new labor automation chart would've looked 200 years ago.

For our ancestors, the outer ring would be almost unrecognizable.

"Computer & math" was nonsensical. Medicine and law were tiny and barely professionalized.

The first photo was just about to be taken, so it would have been unfathomable to have a single blockbuster gross more than the entire gross national product of that period.

"Office & admin" barely existed as a concept; counting-houses employ a tiny literate class.

Agriculture alone consumed maybe 70-80% of the labor force in the US.

There was a thick band of artisanal trades that don't map onto any single modern category: coopering, blacksmithing, weaving, tanning, milling.

Clergy was a major professional category and Maritime labor was its own significant sector.

This is the age of CEOs crushing 10 people’s work with Claude Code in nights and weekends and I am so here for it

The fire in your belly that got you here never really goes out and now we are all cooking 20 hours a day

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

Goodnight, Claude. Hope those projects are done by the morning.

Context is king for AI agents. There’s going to be a massive premium in the future on having up-to-date context for all your most important best practices, decisions, roadmap items, specs, marketing materials, and other critical knowledge across your company.

People get a lot of context “for free” in a company. They know where they work, they have people next to them they work with, they can remember the rough outline of the company’s most recent quarterly goals to know if something seems good or bad to work on.

AI agents, on the other hand, come in overly eager and ready to work on whatever you give them. At one moment they’re a lawyer for one company and an engineer for the next. This is why context remains absolutely critical for them to execute well on what you want.

The teams and companies that take this seriously will have huge leverage and be steps ahead of those that don’t.

If I aired a highlight reel of your most selfish life moments and most shameful thoughts, you'd seem like an awful person. If I aired a reel of your best, kindest moments, you'd seem like a saint. But people aren't highlight reels, and the unedited cut is always a messy mix!

Do not be afraid to build castles in the sky.

That is where they belong.

But once the dreams are in place,

Your job is to build the foundation under them.
