If AI is making developers (inside Anthropic or out) 10x more productive... where's all the software?

I'm not an LLM luddite, they are useful tools, but people with vested interests make a lot of claims that if they were true would result in a situation where we should already be seeing the signs of a giant software renaissance... and I just haven't seen that. Like, at all.

I see a lot more blogging and influncer peddling about how AI is going to change everything than I do any actual signs of AI changing much of anything.

How much software do you think happened at Google internally during its first 10 years of existence that never saw outside light? I imagine that they have a lot of internal projects that we have no idea they even need.

But this AI boom is supposedly lifting all boats, internal and external.

That's the hype being sold. So where's the software...?

And again, I'm not anti-LLM. But I still think the hype around them is far, far greater than their real impact.
