I honestly believe that most Silicon Valley developers could have their pre-AI output replaced by 10 dollars/day in Gemini 3 pay as you go spend.

I don't think existing companies will bite that bullet, but I think you'll see AI native companies in five years with like, a baffling small number of people.

Why in five years? Where are these hyper productive small companies running laps around bigger ones right now?

Getting bought by the bigger companies as it is currently the goal of most start-up since no one cares about monopolies and anti competitive behavior nowadays.
