I met a founder today who said he writes 10,000 lines of code a day now thanks to AI. This is probably the limit case. He's a hotshot programmer, he knows AI tools very well, and he's talking about a 12 hour day. But he's not naive. This is not 10,000 lines of bug-filled crap.

I bet my life-savings Roy Lee will become a billionaire by 2029. Not because he made $5M in 2 months and went viral on every social media app. Because he found the secret formula for online business (it’s so basic I couldn't believe it):
