> We tried this early on — used ChatGPT as "project manager" to set up the entire harness before writing any code. After a week it produced 140+ docs of rules, architecture, frameworks. Zero lines of code. When we finally brought in another tool to review, the verdict was: "a perfectly secure empty safe." The harness was immaculate. There was just nothing inside it.

Re:What was your "Oh Shit" moment with GenAI?

I don't know how to code at all. First time I tried Cursor to build a web app, just talking to it — and it actually worked. That was my first oh shit moment.
A few months later I've gone from Cursor to Codex to Claude Code, from a web app to a native app to an open-source project. It's been one continuous oh-shit since then. Time flies.
My biggest oh shit moment now? Watching my API credits run out.
