Agree with DHH that outsourcing your understanding to AI leads to a loss of competence and you then become less capable in the long run. "Whenever I try to use it in vibe coding form, at least when I'm in a new domain I haven't fully internalized, I can feel the competence dripping out of my fingers. And this is, when I started building Omachi, I started writing a lot of bash. ... And I caught myself asking the AI for the oomph time how to do a certain if conditional. You're like, why have I not internalized this? I have not internalized this because I've outsourced it to the AI. Is that better? Am I better off now? Or am I as delusional as the teachers who thought that by the time we got calculators, students no longer need to know their timetables? No. You will actually turn yourself into an idiot if you can't do seven times seven real quick in your head."

I just listened to a breakdown of Gemini jump from 2.0 to 2.5, and here's the gist. The team did not rely on lab tests alone. They scraped real user feedback from X, turned those "this broke" moments into living evals, and keep appending new edge cases with every release. It's a community driven QA loop: our failures become their benchmarks, which become our better results. If you're a creator or PM, this is a template: public feedback → evals → release → repeat. Great work Logan Kilpatrick Nicole Brichtova and whole team.

Been saying this from the start, both IRL and tech jobs will stick around and mutate. Let’s skip the neo luddite talk. Adoption of AI enhances developer productivity, shifting their value towards delivering greater business impact and fostering the creation of more, higher value roles.

"This is a totally new modality for commerce. In 30 years, when your grandkids ask where you were when agentic commerce took off, you can tell them you were right here at Stripe Sessions." ~ John Collison Let's add and pay for Vercel bot protection directly from Cursor live on stage at Stripe Sessions keynote. Context switching fatigue and death by tiny cuts are getting blurred out.
