If AI can do everything all at once, why have I had to code with it 7 days a week for the last 6 months?

What I’ve learned is: Even with AI, it still takes an enormous amount of time to work through complex problems.

Yes, not writing the code saves us time on a certain kind of problem, but we are a long way from AI doing everything for us—even in software.

As our (coding) projects grow, the number of decisions we need to make also grows. It’s exponential.

What makes your app yours are the thousands of tiny decisions you’ve made daily over a period of months.

There’s no foreseeable reality where agentic AI will just go off and build what you want without you guiding it in a meaningful way.

Unless what you want is so basic, so generic, and so commodified that there was no point in you building it in the first place.
