Fascinating to see the realities of the gap, even among software engineers. Definitely an exciting time to be a builder.

With foreknowledge surely comes plenty of arbitrage opportunities, even if it’s just building radically faster than others can

Yes, that’s it. And you know - I would expect that people from outside of IT world would not be as AI-firneldy as I would expect.

With all due respect, but context windows do not belong exclusively in agents, they belong in GenAI, and if someone does not know what it means while being a "coder", it's a red flag IMO. Totally agree with your abyss view.

I mean…red flag is a strong statement. I belive that really good coders could still get things done without or with little AI. TBH - context window is a changing concept. It matters a lot back in 2023, when it was aroind 4-5k. Now we are looking at 200k(standard) and many models has 1M in beta.
