I would have liked to hear them talk more about whether it makes sense to spend time and money developing a software-only product with no real IP that will be sold in someone else's App Store, and run on someone else's hardware in a world where the cost of developing software is dropping so substantially. But I get that this isn't that kind of movie.

vibe coding is pretty insane. Previous Message
I built a tool that turns questions and reports into podcast episodes I can listen to when I take a walk at lunch.
When I encounter an unfamiliar topic, I send a question to the ingestion agent. It does an initial search, then fans out further searches based on the initial result. The results that come back are synthesized, and the resulting text is evaluated and checked for gaps, inconsistencies, or hallucinations by a totally different set of models.
It would be expensive to operate at scale, but for a handful of questions a week, it's pretty cheap. Previous MessagePrevious Message
