Does time to complete actually matter anymore? What about the quality of the work? What about the efficiency with which you completed the work? What about how much of it you were able to do independently? What about the value you created in your work? If all you’re measuring is speed, then yes, AI is going to slaughter you. But there is more than metric to measure by.

As much as you try to avoid it. Sometimes you need to investigate a problem line by line. Similar to when you’re trying to find the connecting electrical wire, you need to investigate each one, line by line.

AI is reshaping how we do our work. I was just at the age where I could apply the internet immediately to what I was doing when it took off. I started coding HTML and learning how to make things work, and from there went into JavaScript and many other lovely languages 🙂 My work wasn’t reshaped at that point; it just took on this “thing” called the “Internet”.

I can’t remember when or where, but at some place I worked, someone put this sign up as they were doing stuff. The person, in general, was anything but a genius, and I think this made them feel good about doing “genius” style work. Truth of the matter, we don’t need more “genius, half-created, kind of works, skunkworks” work – we need good quality work, that makes sense, that has value, that builds confidence. That’s the Genius Work we need, not more sloppy stuff that no one will ever consume.

Not sure where it is. Not sure when it is. But out there, there is a yet-to-be-defined, untitled, undocumented adventure. Waiting for a leap to be taken.
