Sev @sevitz.com · 02/10/2026There is a lot of circular money in tech right now. But also a lot of noise. Decent comment by @tpgroberts.bsky.social that cuts through a bit of “it’s all bad” which is the OG posters vibe and can wear thin at times. 000

Sev @sevitz.com · 01/10/2026The models will get better sure, but these are products built for 1b people. Thats hard to get right. And As TCCM says people don't think like this. bsky.app/profile/tres... Can AI get this to the people that it's so good that people change how they work? I'm not so sure. 101
Sev @sevitz.com · 01/10/2026The question is can AI/Agents abstract even that away? (Not sure the promotions and multi-inboxes which exist already has done much generally for normies) 100
Sev @sevitz.com · 01/10/2026I do think (1) will get easier but I'm not sold that (2) will change much. Telling Gmail that you want a filter is easier than setting up a filter, but knowing a filter will solve stuff? Not so much. 100
Sev @sevitz.com · 01/10/2026The current theory is agents are going to take the heavy lifting off you. The reality is : (1) it's not that easy to get an agent to do exactly what you want, (2) people just don't think like this. 100
Sev @sevitz.com · 01/10/2026We've had workflows and task automation for forever. How many people even use Gmail or Outlook filters? People are messy, and being organised takes cognitive effort. 100

Sev @sevitz.com · 21/09/2026Absolutely appalling. Costs have gone up 10-20x when I got mine. The government shouldn’t be a profit Center. These people (as / was I) pay taxes. But you know, immigrants. So acceptable to squeeze. For reasons. 042

Sev @sevitz.com · 18/09/2026James is not wrong. And as a South African they’ve also massively misread that and what Mandela achieved (short answer: not bloodshed) Seems like they know very little about Israel/South Africa and from what I can tell from the thread Algeria. 120
