What is the archetype Palantir looks for in forward deployed engineers? a16z's Erin Price-Wright asked Palantir Chief Architect Akshay Krishnaswamy: "One is some sort of interesting cross-functional persona. Someone was a physicist, but now wants to do this." "There’s a little bit of 'I need to prove to myself, to the world, that this outcome should happen, and also that I can do it.'" "It's a bit of a chip on the shoulder. It's a bit of a thumos in them." Akshay Krishnaswamy Erin Price-Wright

.Applied Intuition wants to make robotics as easy as building an iPhone app: "Dana is our new agentic platform for physical AI. This really is the culmination of pretty much everything we've worked on now over the last decade." "Building physical AI is extremely complicated... We know how to make the chips. We know how to make the hardware for these systems. It's more so actually developing all of this technology and getting it to work that is very, very difficult." "With modern AI and with this new Dana platform, we're really drastically reducing the barrier to entry to building physical AI and deploying it in the real world." "If you're building an app for an iPhone, high school kids can do that now because there's all of these things that exist and that make it easy... It's very hard to do that in terms of robotics." "The thing that Peter's really emphasizing and thing that we really wanna do is just lower the bar. So anybody really out there, starting with engineers, but ultimately really anybody can develop robots." Applied Intuition Co-founders Peter Ludwig and Qasar Younis on Business Breakdowns

Why AI will catalyze the renaissance of the American factory in 2026: America’s First Great Century was built on industrial strength, but it’s no secret that we’ve lost much of that muscle—some of it due to offshoring, some of it due to an intentional, society-wide failure to build. But the rusty wheels are starting to creak into motion again, and we’re witnessing the rebirth of the American factory with software and AI at its heart. In 2026, we’ll see companies approach challenges spanning energy, mining, construction, and manufacturing with a factory mindset. This looks like the modular deployment of AI and autonomy alongside skilled workers to make complex, bespoke processes operate like an assembly line. Think: - Quickly and repeatedly navigate complex regulation and permitting - Speed up design cycles, and design-for-manufacture from the get-go - Better manage large-scale project coordination - Deploy autonomy to speed up tasks that are difficult or dangerous for humans to manage By applying techniques that Henry Ford developed a century ago, planning for scale and repeatability on day 0, and layering in the latest advances in AI, we’ll soon be mass-producing nuclear reactors, building housing that meets our nation’s demand, constructing datacenters at breakneck speed, and entering a new Golden Age of industrial strength. To quote Elon Musk, “the factory is the product.” Erin Price-Wright

Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev's hot take about jobs in the AI era: "There will be more software engineers in 10 years than there are today, and there will be more lawyers." "It's going to become much easier to start a venture and run it autonomously." "You'll be a software engineer, de facto. You've got your Claude Code agents writing code for you." "There will be more businesses." "The need for the legal profession actually scales with business activity." "If you have a million businesses incremental per year, each of those is going to need legal support." Vlad Tenev on Basis Points with amit and Steven Fiorillo

Dario Amodei says software engineering might get disrupted faster than entry-level white-collar jobs We are currently in a "centaur phase" — managing AI systems rather than writing code, which may briefly increase demand for engineers "but the centaur phase for software may be very brief"

Benedict Evans says AI means more software, not less: "There's going to be a bunch of stuff you could do with software that you just couldn't do before at all. And so there will be more competition." "If you think about the enterprise software fleet today, you've got three buckets... big iron horizontal systems, so SAP and Workday and your CRM... vertical software... and then in the middle, this fuzzy improvised space of Excel and email and the shared file system." "Now you add ChatGPT to that. Do you do that in an LLM? Is there an LLM tool that means you can do that in Salesforce where you couldn't do it before, or you can do it in your vertical app that you couldn't do before?" "All of which is a long way of saying, what does this do to software? And it must be more software. Way more software." Benedict Evans with Erik Torenberg
