I like the fax machine idea. Reminds me of an idea I had. Get some receipt printers for my friends and we can print to each other's printers to send text messages

Listening to someone tell you about their AI-coded project is like listening to someone tell you a dream they had last night

"and then this happened, then this happened, then this feature, then this feature"

Wow that's crazy...

Ha, this is very true. When this happens I have to tell myself "Okay, time to wait out yet another story"

Someone was bragging to me about their new AI startup a few months ago. I went to look at their website. It was some AI slop. I checked out the code for their form to register interest for the launch… it wasn’t setup at all. It was just a form that went nowhere. They had an idea, told AI to make a site about it, didn’t bother replacing the boilerplate to make it work, hosted it, and then started bragging to their friends about how they were going to be rich.

What a joke.

I was thinking about this the other day. Now that software is within reach of most idea makers, it opens the door for a much deeper level of tinkering. With very affordable, if not slow, 3d printers, and an abundance of hardware interfaces, I think we are going to see some really great weekend projects that will turn into beautiful, "where has this been until now" utility for the world!

I'm excited to see software engineers and teams morph into the next stage of product builders!
