Chamath on how AI agents are making the "10x engineer" distinction disappear because the most efficient "code paths" are now obvious to everyone.
Just as AI solved chess and removed the mystery of the best move, AI is doing the same for coding, making the process reductive and removing technical differentiation.
"I'm going to say something controversial: I don't think developers anymore have good judgment. Developers get to the answer, or they don't get to the answer, and that's what agents have done. The 10x engineer used to have better judgment than the 1x engineer, but by making everybody a 10x engineer, you're taking judgment away. You're taking code paths that are now obvious and making them available to everybody.
It's effectively like what happened in chess: an AI created a solver so everybody understood the most efficient path in every single spot to do the most EV-positive (expected value positive) thing. Coding is very similar in that way; you can reduce it and view it very reductively, so there is no differentiation in code."

Porsche got very greedy and paid a huge price for it.
This is what happens when you don’t listen to your core audience. Same thing happened with Mercedes and its C63.
meta just acquired the tech to flood their platforms with bots.
millions of autonomous AI agents across facebook, instagram, whatsapp - buying, selling, posting, and scamming your grandparents.
i feel bad for the boomers on facebook.
Let me explain why this is absolutely insane.
Scientists just copied a biological brain and made it move inside a computer.
>Researchers scanned a fruit fly brain neuron-by-neuron from electron microscopy data
>The brain contains ~125,000 neurons and ~50 million synapses
>They recreated the entire connectome as a digital brain model
>Then they plugged that brain into a physics-simulated fly body
>Sensory input goes in → the digital brain processes it → motor commands come out
>The simulated fly walks, grooms and behaves like a real fly
>No training. No prompts. No reinforcement learning
>The behavior was already inside the wiring of the brain
This might be the first real step toward uploading minds into computers.
God put a piece of divinity in YOU so that you could go see what you are capable of.
To see how far you can go.
God does not require adoration or worship.
Especially does not require suffering or sacrifice.
People are confusing gods with GOD.
God wants you to be strong, independent, productive, loving and evolving.
Like any good parent.
