The methods and techniques a writer uses to compose a work shape the finished work as much as a painter's or musician's technical choices shape theirs.
The methods we choose to use to compose the work determine the final work as much as any decision by a painter or musician.

A working demo is at best one per cent of the work; the nines that follow it are where the real work is.

AI will transform how scientific discovery is done, and within two or three years a working scientist's job will already look dramatically different.

It is better to be an optimist who works hard than a pessimist who writes about why things will not work, because no amount of such essays moves society forward.
i would rather be an optimist and work hard than a pessimist posting about why things won't work. it's much more difficult and the most likely path is failure, but society fails if people don't try. no amount of "it…

GitHub's workflow, review process and merge queue are built for a pre-agent era and don't fit how agents work.

Nobody can do genuinely hard cognitive work for eight hours a day; the sustainable unit is one or two sessions of sixty to ninety minutes.
We kind of expect that we can go to work and we can work really hard for eight hours straight during the day, but like the brain doesn't really work like that.

Whether AI augments or automates workers depends on a firm's economic context, not on the technology itself.

Humans max out at three or four hours of really hard deep work a day, so the eight hours of intense work executives ask for is not available.
And humans max out at about like 3 to 4 hours a day. Like really really hard deep work, right? Um which always makes me laugh when executives are like, "We need 8 hours of intense work."

Working harder cannot beat working on a better thing, so out-thinking someone should count as part of out-working them.
But you cannot outwork the person who's working on a better thing. And so um it is possible if you really grind maybe you can work 10% harder or 20% harder than you are now. But if you work on the right thing you get…

Work smarter, not harder is bad advice, because the only way to find out what smart looks like is to work very hard first.
And so for me, the only way I can learn how to work smart is by working very, very hard and knowing that there's no shortcuts. And then when I finally figure out what smart is, when I work smart and work hard, it is…

Robotics has a bootstrap that computing never had: making robots is physical work, and robots do physical work.
robots help with uh physical things uh physical work. And if producing robots is itself physical work, then getting really good at robotics should help with that. It's a little circular, of course.

AI has done the first ninety per cent of the work of sounding human, and the last five per cent will turn out to be about ninety-five per cent of the work.
I also think that they’ve done the sort of first 90% of the work to sound human, 95% possibly in some areas. The last 5% is going to end up being about 95% of the work.
