LLMs everywhere, even in cars

LLMs are no longer a tab you open. They're the interface layer between intent and every system underneath. This post maps what ambient AI, edge inference, and agent-as-infrastructure mean for how you design modern software.

The end of the all-you-can-eat buffet

The end of the all-you-can-eat buffet

The all-you-can-eat era of AI is ending. Compute constraints, heavier models, and a fully hooked user base are pushing providers toward pay-as-you-go. That shift will force better choices, smaller models, and fiercer competition between tools.

Mental capacity is a bottleneck

AI removes bottlenecks until it reaches the one that doesn’t move: human cognition. The faster AI makes your system, the more your team’s mental capacity becomes the constraint. You can’t add more of it.

Taste is the moat

Taste is the moat

When AI closes the execution gap, taste becomes the differentiator. Curation, judgement, and the willingness to say “not this” compound over time in ways that models can’t replicate.

Is the AI agent frenzy similar to the mobile app hype of the early 2010s?

Is the AI agent frenzy similar to the mobile app hype of the early 2010s?

In 2010, every business convinced itself it needed a mobile app. Fast forward to 2025, and the script is identical, just with AI replacing mobile as the technology everyone insists they can't afford to be without.
