I do think the point that solo companies that could have been billion dollar start-ups might get a lower market cap if they can be done solo with AI tools is a good one. But that seems a lot more nuanced than calling the idea something like a Mach 1 car. I think this is like pointing out that we lowered the speed of sound as technology developed, so a Mach 1 car doesn’t mean the same thing anymore, if we want the analogies to line up. Of course I’ve stretched the analogy well past any hope of making sense at this point, haha.

You have a nuanced view which I'm taking into consideration. I agree that if I'd spent any amount of time on my comment, I might have found a more apt analogy. The OP's response, "It is a terrible analogy that shows terrible thinking," is however entirely ridiculous and taking my comment in bad faith, against hacker news guidelines. As such, I do contend the analogy fits, even if it doesn't fit perfectly.
