Recently authored a white paper w/ Wisk on Urban Air Mobility (UAM) in the U.S. based on qualitative & quantitative research conducted by Hypothesis.
Flying taxis are a lot closer than you’d think. Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL).
Oh, and they won’t have pilots.
What do consumers think about self-flying #airtaxi services? Is there demand? If so, what’s driving it? Find out if consumers are ready for a world where everyday flight is a reality in our consumer research whitepaper.
@typesfast@gbrl_dick +1. We’ve used these all over the world. They pack small, easy to use and, after the first time, kids were fuss-free with them.
Just pack it in its own stuff sack & keep it easily accessible in your luggage so you aren’t struggling to find it in a taxi-line/crowded pickup area.
One of the best things about working at @figma is being able to witness magic every single day. The CONSTANT stream of prototypes, riffs, explorations, and mind-blowing demos that get shared in slack channels is insane. I am truly wow'ed every single day. Buckle up.
@itsme_urstruly@jimmygards Just went down that rabbit hole a week ago with my brother. They’re on eBay now for $250/ea. They should do a proper release for all of us that have kiddos now.
I think you're going to see it's all going to converge back to screens and data and panels and buttons.
People don't want to ask the same question over and over. They'll ask something, it'll be set up to show something, and that thing will be saved as something they can always look at. Stable pre-defined glances, not blank slates each time. Common questions will become buttons and panels again.
Most people ask the same kinds of questions about what they work on most of the time. Having to start from scratch with the questions every time seems like a step backwards.
Another way to put this: Questions are wonderful for a deeper dive, but not a daily drive.
Not sure you're suggesting questions always, but the comparison screenshots looked that way.
And, as models get better, the proportion of bug-fixing time will decrease, and the proportion of review time will increase. With people increasingly working in localized projects or isolated chat threads, it’s increasing difficult to stay aligned across broader teams.
A lot of shifts, and I strongly believe by the end of this year teams will start taking this “fragmentation tax” much more seriously.
@Aiswarya_Sankar This (your other post) starts to address things on the code front, but that's far downstream of so many other micro decisions and efforts that are harder to measure empirically like this.

@RobertNowell1 hmm I think the best way to measure this is what is the PR close (not merge) rate before and after.
The % of PRs that are either closed without merging or left open indefinitely has also skyrocketed since AI code gen. Will share stats on that soon
@Aiswarya_Sankar Great point. That also requires disciplined documentation, decision logging, audibility of inputs...but right now it feels like so much is just ship+forget, and the chat/AI engagement history also just disappears into the ether.
The whole process is going to need more discipline
@brandonjcarl Completely agree. The current ways of working are also seen (and treated) as binary, and with AI as the "silver bullet". Right now is a fun, exciting, wild-west moment, but reality will set in quickly and teams/companies will find a better balance of tooling and processes.
