I read this and immediately thought of the scene in gladiator where Maximus efficiently annihilates all his combatants and crowd is not enthused. He yells:
“are you not entertained”
Apple is crushing it. If you’re in tech look around you. Phone, watch, laptop, headphone. All miles ahead of any other device. Even the thing you could strap on to your face is a leap. And yet we yawn.
Look studio gibli images. Wow. Apple has lost it.
Currently consumer AI is a toy. When it becomes a utility Apple has a track record of success. The future of AI is decidedly on device.
We’ve effectively hacked status or update meetings by doing them asynchronously but voice. People monologuing about their issue is fine when you can listen to it at 1.5X or go back to it. Folks thread responses.
Very cool concept. It’d be helpful if there was videos of it working or some details on the process you made to build it. Or even why you did.

2025 is the year of agents. I’ve heard about SDR AI agents but not great things. Most “agents” sound like workflow automations that have been around forever. Anyone have an example of an “ai” agent which I understand to be intelligent that isn’t a glorified or rebranded workflow automation? Thx.
Industrial use case safety googles. Not very exciting.
Yea!! I was looking at some options in Alibaba. Haven’t found anything good. Anyone root meta glasses yet?
The golden handcuffs at Amazon for top performers is really strong. I’ve heard SWE making $750K (with options) after 24 months of proving yourself.
That’s an $125K bonus every 120 days. Or $1000 a day to go into the office. lol
I read about an Amazon SWE that was trying do as little as possible to not get fired or just get a severance. I wonder if this is the most effective way to weed out all those.
With 300K employees they likely have thousands of zombie wfh employees.
This is why you interview.

Can confirm that investors do not value product hunt traction. Many see it as a negative signal.
Thanks for sharing your perspective, it’s broadened my own. I’m pro-ai, I believe in the potential. I was asking if GPTs or image generators have replaced human jobs yet. The loss of jobs seems like an over reaction. I personally think like all major tech breakthroughs it will create industries/markets not previously possible.
https://hn.algolia.com/?q=ai+layoffsFrom the links on page 1-4 looks like companies are laying people off to invest in AI infra. That’s different than getting replaced by it. I just can’t think of a workflow that can be automated by “AI”
ChatGPT is like a 3.0 version of grammerly or google auto complete. Has anyone done anything remarkable with it or because of it?
I’m pro-AI. I don’t really trust openAI to be the harbingers of AGI. But they earned that right (so far) by building and monetizing the initial breakthrough product. It’s been 2 years, has anyone actually lost their job to AI? I rarely see the midjourney images that were all the rage 6 months ago. Hiring less maybe causal. All companies pulled back after the boom times of ZIRP. Seems this is all much ado about nothing.

With on device LLMs Apple is poised to incentivize most users to upgrade.
Try startups. I never had a formal performance review on a small team.
CEOs have three responsibilities that I doubt an AI will ever do. 1. Ensure the company has money to operate. 2. Recruit and inspire employees to do their best work collectively. 3. Make decisions where there isn’t definitive supporting data.
Isn’t Salesforce’s primary value proposition trust?
Who is this framework useful for?
