Perplexity’s CEO Aravind Srinivas: In software you would always pay for the very best frontier model. "It's kind of like, if you know some engineer is awesome, if you know you have, like, the next Jeff Dean, would you rather hire that person and not hire five people who... show more

Do software teams actually always pay for the very best? Most dev teams I see pick good-enough models to stay in budget. The API that ships the feature wins over the one that's slightly better but eats the runway.

Without a principled idea, elite engineering just scales the wrong thing faster. You get beautiful architecture around a product thesis that was never coherent

idk maybe Jeff Dean would overengineer your CRUD app like crazy, and then go really slow because he's checking every edge case, and your company dies I'd want 3 engineers at $333k At some point models are smart enough for most coding and you want speed over intelligence

The frontier model is the leverage point; one exceptional hire can outperform a whole team. You’re a top-tier follow.

frontier models reduce planning errors, but deterministic execution harnesses matter more for multi-file verification.

Trouble with these analogies is that there are other analogies Eg If you had a 16 year old Messi at a cheaper price, would you get them ? If you were to build a team, how would you compare team contribution vs individual talent ? And so on.

the analogy actually undersells it. five mediocre engineers at least fail on different things. weaker models tend to cluster on the same edge cases, so there's no diversification benefit either.

Rhetoric that doesn't hold in the corporate world. For the vast majority of companies and their vast majority of processess paying double for 2%-5% enhancement in the model against benchmark, isn't going to result in double the output or mitigate half the losses.

This is also something I think. Most of the times, for engineering, it only makes sense to use a frontier model.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang just called the idea of AI replacing software engineers "complete nonsense" "The number of software engineers is actually increasing... if you can hire a software engineer and generate $9 trillion worth of productive work, why wouldn't you want to hire more? If that line were flat, then obviously people would hire fewer software engineers. But because the output is so incredible, people want to hire more This is going to show up in our economy somehow, soon. Useful AI has arrived"

Perplexity’s CEO Aravind Srinivas: AI agents could create an explosion of tiny billion-dollar companies, yet Anthropic chose to tell the world AI was coming for their jobs. "There’s going to be lots of amazing companies that are going to get built with far fewer people, getting multi-billion-dollar, multi-hundred-million-dollar valuations with, like, 20 or 30 people and propelling trillions of dollars of new GDP." ---- From "20VC with Harry Stebbings" YouTube channel ( Harry Stebbings ), link in comment

Perplexity’s CEO Aravind Srinivas: how a single power user can now consume as much compute as an entire small team. "There are real engineers at Meta and other companies spending around $10 million a year per engineer on these coding tools. There are users in Perplexity Computer, who spends upwards of $10,000 a month. Their business runs using agent loops that are running inside these harnesses. Even internally inside our own company, there are some people who have set up these kinds of multi-agent hierarchies and agent loops that look like their own software architecture. I often ask these people to come explain to the rest of the company, “Hey, what are you doing with these tools? You clearly are consuming them way more than what we thought the average person in the company would do.” --- The old software instinct was to chase a billion people doing small actions. Agentic AI changes that math because one skilled operator can create a stream of machine work that runs all day. ---- From "20VC with Harry Stebbings" YouTube channel ( Harry Stebbings ), link in comment

Patrick Collison on the importance of waiting a really long time to hire people Everybody tells you “work really hard to hire the best people.” But as Patrick explains, that’s not helpful because everyone knows they should do that. As he puts it: “The question is to what length should you go and what does that actually mean in practice? And in practice, it means being okay waiting a really long time to hire people.” It took Stripe six months to hire their first two people, and six more months to hire another 3-4 people. He can think of five people at Stripe who took 3+ years to hire. “If you think about the smartest people you know, if you want to get them to work on your thing, chances are they already have pretty good paths ahead of them… You have to be way more persistent and be okay with it taking way longer than any sane or reasonable person would think it should take.” There’s an important compounding effect here — hiring just one great person will make it marginally easier to get the next great person. Patrick argues you should also view every person you hire as bringing along another 50 people just like them if your company is successful: “Even if they don’t literally hire 50 people, they will be so influential in determining the selection of those 50 people.” Source: Greylock Partners (Nov 2015)

Asmongold uses Milton Friedman's spoons analogy to shut down anti automation arguments "If you could have five people making one hamburger, you could have five jobs attached to that. But if you can do it with one person, you're only going to do it with one person." "It's the Milton Friedman quote. If you really want to increase productivity, why don't you have everybody dig a hole with spoons instead of shovels, that way you can hire as many people as possible and everybody will always be working. The logic of that if you follow it to its conclusion is just retarded." "Not a single instance in history has ever proven those people to be correct. They've been wrong every single time."

Sam Altman: "I'm not a jobs doomer at all. I think there are gonna be tons of jobs." "If we could go back to 2019 and show people our latest model, not only would they say that it's AGI, they would say that the economy would have been completely upended. And that has not happened. Anytime you're that wrong and that confident, which I think we were as a field, you have to update. AI is just very jagged. It's like superhuman genius in some ways, like dumb toddler in others. And people have, so far, extremely complementary skills to AI. It's not taste…the world may need a new kind of word for the kind of judgment that people are very good at that AIs seem to really deeply struggle with. You can go hire an AI consultant right now or talk to an AI sales rep or hire an AI engineer. And somehow most people seem to still really prefer interacting with a human. I definitely would rather engage with a person than engage with an AI for almost everything. Human values have value because they're human. We are deeply hardwired to care about people."

Beware, with allot of these newer cars that have the LED headlamps. Not only are they allot of work to remove, but the dealer doesn’t tell you that it’s not serviceable. Before, if a bulb went out, you could go and get one for less than $100 especially if you have the HID lights or halogen. With LED, you have to replace the whole headlamp if the light ever goes out. Would you pay the $1000-$5000 for a new headlamp or would you just say screw it, time to trade it in.

Gilbert Arenas says if you’re still hating on LeBron James something is wrong with you: “I don’t care who your favorite player is. If you’re hating on this player, something is wrong with you. I don’t care if you have them one, two, or three. What I do know is if you have him three, you’re not hating on one, two, or four. You’re only hating on the one person. You have to justify why you don’t have them at one or two. So you bash him and you’re not realizing the greatness he’s pouring into the game. Just like the people you have in front of him or the people you have in behind him. It is sad when you really sit back and just hear the arguments. If you listen to a Jordan fan, you would think they have LeBron James 100th all time. A Kobe fan 100th, sh*t when you hear LeBron fans talk about Michael Jordan, you would think he didn’t know what the left side of his goddamn body would look like. These are the ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE BEST PLAYERS of all time. It’s 4800 players of all time. And we talk about the top five. We talk about number two as if he’s one of the worst players that ever lived.” (Via Gilbert Arenas)

You're constantly recruiting, you're constantly meeting people. in advance of searches. And all of it is referral based. The two ways to find out if people are good – is to start with the results and work backwards to the people. Find an ad you like and figure out who made that ad. Start with the results. Work backwards to people. Don't start with the resume. The other thing to do is just keep asking people to build your Rolodex. The moment I find somebody that's really good, I ask them who all the best people they know are. And I build these little mafias and they tell you who the other good people are. I am the co-hiring manager for the top 200 people in the company. This is very radical. A lot of CEOs think it's their job to hire their executive team, and their executive team hires their team.
