<p>Magic AI - I'm using it as a sanitized kids chatgpt for 7 activities: Story, image creation, chat, reflections, journal, learn and quizzes. Sends me daily summary on Whatsapp.<p>It started with building pi in the cloud - with pure cloud flare workers. I have it working now, and can spin up - the  wrangler agent can fully run it as long as you pass it an inference key, including a file view, a chatgpt like experience, and ability to build and host custom apps. Can use alarms to wake up to do plain language tasks, etc.<p>Trying to figure out how to package this up, and where this would even be useful for other apps.</p>

<p>You have a good core idea here. You're pretty much killing your project in infancy with the AGPL+donation license model. Meanwhile, some other projects will take the core idea of "language aware differ" and release BSD, and one of those will win, including perhaps making it into git/future version controls.<p>IMO, you should seek to make this a standard that wins, and hopefully other opportunities that come will be where you make commercial hay. My unsolicited 2c.</p>

<p>In the new world, normalised interviews are going away, because business value is not normalized. This means that domain based interviewing and signals are going to make a comeback.<p>It would make sense to build your career in a single domain, since your built up expertize will transfer to other companies within that domain.<p>Far fewer switches will happen for seniors across domains.</p>

<p>A friend of mine put this to me: Ai can do everything needed for a business currently, outside of anticipating future business needs constantly.<p>Which means the job market will currently benefit those with this skill. Traditionally what EMs/PMs,leaders would do.<p>I'm not sure where this will land, but the above rings true - Juniors are most hurt right now because they've never been in the business of figuring out future needs. Those few that can, are thriving in this world.<p>I wonder if others see the workplace around them aligning or contrary to this.</p>

<p>This is a good point.<p>Zoho is a classics example of picking students at age 16/17, when they'd typically join a UG course, and instead train them on the job.<p>Some of the large tech service companies change incentives by tying a training fee ("bond") which is tied to some tenure (1-2 years). Departing before this would mean giving this back - which broadly incentives the planned tenure.<p>Other companies (musigma is an example) present pay as a 4 year package (10X), which is split 1/2/3/4X across 4 years.<p>I think the challenges US universities/companies are today facing is something India has needed for a couple decades now. I would not be surprised if many of these are tried in the US.<p>If you do plan - reach out to me, it's something I've wanted to expand into (currently run UG curriculums).</p>

<p>Very well written, IMO. Put me in a contemplative mood. For eg: Braun was done away with, first by civilization, then completely by the industrial revolution. Now brain has started the journey.<p>I guess philosophy, spiruality, religion and theology will be what the curious mind will set out to conquer next on the journey to self-actualization.</p>
