The joy of Google sites, page itself, makes zero external requests, the container not so much - will deploy elsewhere.

When this dropped the other day, the only thing that came to mind is the person who made this and the person who approved this both need to be fired. This is a company that can't even integrate AI properly into their workspace environment or their core products in any meaningful way. The fact that they thought this was worth release just staggering. Somebody actually approved this.

Yes, for me --moved past AI coding accelerating you to 80-90% then living in the valley of infinite tweaks. This past month with with right thinking working with say Opus 4.6 has moved past that blocker.

This is a solid assessment of whats here and what is in front of us. Broad brush stroke dismissals aside, we are here. Evolve or Perish. AI is like unchecked fire, but make no mistake fire is very powerful once it was harnessed. AI leans more supplemental vs incremental than prior major tech shifts and that's worth noting. It will be the same for other sectors and verticals over time. The markets view software eats the world is being eaten by new software.
