   There's one of mine in there where I predicted in 2023 that it would be 20 years until AI would be reliably able to entirely build and deploy arbitrary applications from a prompt. I was off by about 18 years on that one!

      Everyone's picking on what's meant by "arbitrary", but it's the "reliably" and "entirely" bits that get me to raise an eyebrow.

      I think there's a whole lot of survivorship bias going into our perception of how effective AI is at building arbitrary applications without significant hand-holding.

         5.6 Sol, Astra, Opus/Sonnet 5.5 can build and deploy entire applications end to end.
