As engineering, product, design, DS, etc. melt into a new kind of role, I was reflecting on what roles might look like in the future. For example, when I look at the Claude Code team I see what I think is five archetypes:

1. Prototyper: comes up with brand new ideas; churns out many ideas, most of which don't ship
2. Builder: quickly turns a prototype/idea into production-grade product/infra
3. Sweeper: cleans up the UI, simplifies the code and system, unships, optimizes performance
4. Grower: takes a product that has been built and iterates on it to improve Product-Market Fit
5. Maintainer: owns a mature system to make it secure, reliable, fast, and efficient as it scales

Many people span across 2 roles, and sometimes 3 roles. I also notice that these roles are not really tied to job function -- eg. across Anthropic, some designers match category 1, some 2, some 3; same for engineers, PM, DS.

A healthy team needs a mix of these, depending on the product:

- A product that is new and pre-PMF needs people that are strong at 1+2+3
- A product that is growing and has found PMF needs 2+3+4 and some 5
- A product that has strong PMF needs 3+4+5 and some 2

Maybe product roles of the future will look more like this, and less like the domain-specific roles of today?

@omarsar0 How do you feed artifacts back to LLM?

[Anh Dinh @anhgemus]

Qwen3.6-35B-A3B is amazing! This is the first time that I feel like local LLM has a chance

Pretty blown away by the reasoning I'm seeing when agents try autoresearch. The way it thinks through each step, catches its own mistakes, and adapts on the fly — it is just a matter of time…

Few know that Vietnam is the world's most improved nation in the last 35 years.

Highest growing GDP per capita in the world from 1990-today, even more than China (only 2nd to Guyana, who discovered oil).

In that time, they went from ~4x less to ~2x more than India. Incredible.

@bindureddy Can I have a freemium account to try this out?

@jwswj Maybe you can ask chatGPT about their security policy

Potentially nitpicky but competitive advantage in AI goes not so much to those with data but those with a data engine: iterated data aquisition, re-training, evaluation, deployment, telemetry. And whoever can spin it fastest. Slide from Tesla to ~illustrate but concept is general

ChatGPT is magical

Borrowing for consumption blows up households.

Borrowing for speculation blows up banks.

Borrowing for bailouts, handouts, and wars blows up currencies.

Credit is an economic drug - feel good now, blow up later.

Actually, I think CEOs should be technical too. I’ve no idea how people who can’t reason deeply about technology is supposed to do this job. It’s hard enough with that ability.
