I’ve been thinking about this idea a lot. I have a phrase that I’ve taken to using. Leverage Engineering.
I think AI is going to create a whole new class of people that take a tiny output and turn it into an outsized output.
When this works, it is really nice. Think Cursor, Lovable, or OpenClaw.
When it doesn’t work though, things get ugly too. The same power that allows a small team to build a billion dollar company also allows rouge agents to industrialize their efforts as well.
Combine this with the rise of headless browsers and you have a dangerous cocktail.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we see regulation or licensing around frontier AI APIs in the near future.

"anyone can make music with a synthesizer, so it will make music less special", but were still waiting for music to decay away because its easier than it used to be.

- thierrydamiba 7mo agoNo I don’t think it’s a bad thing! I’m just predicting what will happen. I think it’s a really good thing.
