01 / belief
“I think in the future though, this has been a core problem with the chatbot shape, is that I know how to set this up.”
02 / belief
“Again, I think we're still in the discovery phase on a lot of this. And so right now it's like I'm making an automation that says, or scheduled task that says like, "Go through my Slack channels, these are the things that I care about and think are most important.”
03 / belief
“Something I think about along these lines is just AI is still very bad at actual design.”
04 / uncertainty
“I don't know what advice to ever give, but if there's one piece, it's like, "Do not get married to your exact process.”
05 / uncertainty
“I failed for, I don't know, somewhere between 10 and 15 years before getting to this point.”
06 / belief
“I wasn't a fan of the design. The design process proper, I agree with her take that it is dead.”
07 / uncertainty
“I don't know, man. I am not in the business of saying never or always or whatever.”
08 / belief
“The least that we can do is make it so that if you don't know how to do something in the app, that you can just ask it. I don't think that's enough, but I think that's the least we can do.”
09 / preference
“I think Linear does a great job. Until this, Linear was my favorite, at least software product.”
10 / commitment
“that abstraction layer. So I think as we've gone through this process of, we started the Codex app in November.”
11 / evaluation
“I think design's a little bit harder to grade because the human aspect of taste is part of the feedback mechanism you need.”
12 / preference
“We worked very closely together. We believe in, while sitting together, being embedded.”
13 / preference
“We want everyone to have these skills, but I think what people go deep on has to change.”
14 / evaluation
“One of the hardest things to do right now as a leader building these products is just sort of the inversion of the process in my mind, which I think a lot of people have talked about, which is that anybody can build anything.”
15 / evaluation
“I want to talk about this browser use piece a little bit because I think people don't realize how powerful this is and what it could be used for.”
16 / observation
“We should take this thing that everybody seems to be setting up and just make that work." And I think memory is sort of in the shape where we've had a lot of people, and a lot of people at other companies too are like, "Well, I set up an Obsidian base or a Notion area.”
17 / prediction
“I think that one of the interesting things that is happening right now is that because implementation has gotten so cheap across every medium, it's very tempting to jump straight to a prototype.”
18 / evaluation
“There's some convergence, there's some fluidity that is being introduced that I think is refreshing and great, especially for people with agency that want to be able to just do the thing that needs to get done.”
