@EverestToday Shocking news. What a man. What a hero. The world has lost one of humanity’s best. We will solemnly miss him. My condolences to his family. May he rest in peace. ❤️

Jensen Huang just gave every CEO on the planet a single number to judge their engineering team by.

Not lines of code.

Not features shipped.

Dollars burned in compute.

Huang: “If that $500,000 engineer did not consume at least $250,000 worth of tokens, I am going to be deeply alarmed. And this is no different than one of our chip designers who says, ‘Guess what? I’m just gonna use paper and pencil. I don’t think I’m gonna need any CAD tools.’”

Half a million dollars in salary.

Five thousand dollars in token spend.

That ratio should be keeping every hiring manager awake tonight.

It means your most expensive engineer is solving problems by hand that a machine could close in seconds.

You are paying Formula 1 money for someone pedaling a bicycle.

Huang is not suggesting engineers use more AI.

He is saying if they are not consuming massive volumes of inference, your organization has a structural failure it has not diagnosed yet.

And if you are the engineer in that seat right now, the math is staring directly at you.

Your value is no longer measured by what you can build alone.

It is measured by how much machine output you can direct, evaluate, and multiply.

The ones who refuse to let go of the keyboard are pricing themselves out of the conversation.

Calacanis pushed him on what this looks like two or three years out.

Huang didn’t give a forecast.

He eliminated three assumptions the entire industry still plans around.

Huang: “‘Wow, this is too hard,’ that thought is gone. ‘This is gonna take a long time,’ that thought is gone. ‘We’re gonna need a lot of people,’ that thought is gone.”

Too hard. Gone.

Too long. Gone.

Too many people. Gone.

Every planning conversation in every boardroom in the world is built on at least one of those three constraints.

Huang just declared all three obsolete.

Huang: “This is no different than in the last Industrial Revolution somebody goes, ‘Boy, that building really looks heavy.’ Nobody says that. Everything that’s too big, too heavy, takes too long, those ideas are all gone. You’re reduced to creativity.”

The Industrial Revolution made it absurd to say an object was too heavy to move.

This moment makes it absurd to say a problem is too complex to build.

Once you saturate your workforce with enough inference, the only bottleneck left is the quality of the idea itself.

Not the team size.

Not the timeline.

Not the technical difficulty.

The idea. That is all that is left.

Huang: “In the past, we code. In the future, we’re gonna write ideas, architectures, specifications. We’re gonna organize teams. We’re gonna define how to evaluate the definition of good versus bad. And I think that every engineer is gonna have a hundred agents.”

The engineer of the next decade does not write code.

They write intent.

They define what good looks like.

They architect the problem.

They evaluate the output.

They direct a hundred agents executing in parallel across every layer of the stack.

The companies still hiring engineers to manually write syntax are staffing a typing pool in the age of the printing press.

The engineer’s job is no longer to build.

It is to command.

@AnthropicAI Whatever you do next PLEASE increase the chat context window. Claude is starting to cause me more work than less by losing context and constantly compressing conversations. PLEASE 🙏 I would even happily pay MORE 😅

[Tuki @TukiFromKL]

Claude can now run your app, look at it, review the code, fix the bugs, and merge the PR

a full engineering team that never sleeps, never argues about tabs vs spaces, and costs $20/month

we just witnessed a mass layoff announcement disguised as a product update

@coolprof2 @Oom_Rugby 😂😂😂 nog altyd so gedink…

[Jaana Dogan ヤナ ドガン @rakyll]

I'm not joking and this isn't funny. We have been trying to build distributed agent orchestrators at Google since last year. There are various options, not everyone is aligned... I gave Claude Code a description of the problem, it generated what we built last year in an hour.

[Peter Hattingh @peterHattingh]

@Angeliki_BTC mini apps like what? sounds interesting 🤔

@ohabryka @IsaacKing314 Use Claude in Cursor - the only way to do it 🤩
