Ironically, I hosted the show before I was a guest on the show. I did a thing with Sean Hollister a while ago when you were off, you know, gallivanting somewhere. But now I get to be here talking to you.

I have, I think I've come to see this as less of a procrastination technique of taking all of the tasks that I have in one place and putting them in another place rather than completing any of them because it still feels productive, even though I don't have to do anything as constantly rethinking the way that I do everything, which again, you could argue that's not productive at all.

It's probably not, but I, I have spent probably more time thinking about how I do stuff than than almost anyone I know. I don't know if it's useful. I don't know if it helps. I end up just back in the same apps 400 different times a year, but it is a thing I have spent way too much time and energy on over the years.

Yeah, and I actually think that is the right way to think about it, right? That it's not that we replaced floors of accountants with nothing or with one magical computer that does all of our accounting for us. We just changed the tools that we use. And in so many ways, the idea of our...

productivity being replaced by machines turns out to not be true nearly as much as it is the tools of our productivity are replaced by machines. And I think that's what we've seen with software, where we all went from adding machines and paper to doing the same, arguably more work with computers. And the same thing is going to happen with AI, right?

Like it wasn't that long ago that everybody was like, oh, because of the industrial revolution and then computers, we won't have to work 40 hours a week anymore. We're all gonna be so efficient with this new technology that we're just gonna work eight hours a week and get the same amount done. Whoops, that didn't happen. But I think that transition is exactly right.
