I know the AI echo chamber is a thing, but I also talk AI in real life (like today on a trail run) with others in software/tech. AI adoption is everywhere in software. Big and small companies. Private and public.

"As a programmer, my reaction could be that I don’t want to be replaced by AI, but...I actually don’t like writing code. I like building products, and it turns out you have to write code to do that. Making sure we’re building the right thing will always be more important than the code itself." 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I frequently text people links to music. I’ve slowly learned who should get an Apple Music link and who should get Spotify link. I use Apple Music because of HomePod integration. But it seems like Spotify is far more popular.
