Already scheduled out some of 2026, including restarting my YouTube channel and possibly creating a new one. Let's see where things go and where the world takes us with the crazy onset of AI.
@DavidKPiano I think an enterprise license would solve the issue pretty quickly. Not sure open sourcing to commercial companies is for the greater good anymore, they could afford it easily regardless.
@jeffrey_way@jackmcdade Basically going to need a "Created Before AI" badge on sites now for any sort of impressiveness to exist, even then, impossible to prove that besides via word of mouth from people who remember the site pre-AI.
@vanschneider Gets tiresome watching others defend erosion of the arts. I don’t care if it’s more efficient or “the future,” I crave authenticity and something from the human soul.
@simonswiss Sorry to hear that my guy, been out of course creation game for a year now, but the industry has been brutal to Chris Courses and others I know in the same market as of late. Hoping you find something quickly 🤞
@sweatystartup Been thinking this for the past week... How many people are actually making revenue and substantial gains with the release of Opus 4.5?
I only see losses.
SaaS apps used to solve problems, now it's just Claude Code for almost everything.
