I'm genuinely worried about all our short term investment in mitigating the failure modes of models that may only be SOTA for a few months.
It's very possible people being 'late' adopting AI may end up with a leg up, not only because they spent more time polishing personal skills during this time, but also because they don't bring all the baggage of 'AI competence' that is becoming irrelevant at breakneck speed.
Suppose you use LLMs in a more straightforward way, like asking coding agents to make specific changes rather than attempting to build a software factory?
That could be seen either as early adoption that’s overfitted to current capabilities or as late adoption of LLM’s more advanced capabilities.

AI is rapidly saturating it's ability to be useful and these products need to start to mature.
It's not 'fun' to manage 50 different broken MCPs and their variety of ways in which they are broken.
It was 'fun' at the start, now it's just 'broken technology'.
Astra and Opus 5.5 are the 'starting point' for the next era of AI where we expect robust tooling.
