that attached to every Google Calendar invite is a document for our one-on-one doc that has some notes in it.

And this is something that I previously also harangued my assistant about, about make sure the document is attached to the calendar.

And a few weekends ago, I just used Claude Cowork, and I said, hey, go through my calendar, make sure every single one has a document.

If I'm meeting the person for the first time, create the document, ask me five questions about what I want to cover, and then put that into the agenda.

And it did it.

None of that work involves a person

gaining skills or like exercising their brain it's just busy work that needs to happen to allow you to do the actual thing which is talking to another person that's exactly the kind of thing you can use AI for now it's just helpful

Everyone becomes a manager.

And the thing that is increasingly limited or the thing that's going to be the slowest part is having good taste and intuitions about what to do next.

developing and maintaining that taste is going to be the hard thing.

Because as you've said, taste comes from experience.

It comes from reading the primary source material, doing some of this work yourself.

We're going to need to be extremely intentional about working out where we as people specialize so that we have that intuition and taste, or else you're just going to be surrounded by super productive AI systems.

And when they ask you what to do next, you probably won't have a great idea.

And that's not going to lead to useful things.

I would say comfortably the majority of code is being done by the system.

Some of our systems like ClaudeCode are almost entirely written by Claude.

I mean, Boris, who leads ClaudeCode, says, I don't code anymore.

I just go back and forth with ClaudeCode to build ClaudeCode.

We could be 99% by the end of the year if things speed up really aggressively, if we are actually good at getting these systems to be able to write code everywhere they need to, because often the impediment is organizational schlep rather than any limiter in the system.
