    Nice! At one point I wrote a novel. I still have it, but I never did anything with it. Now between kids and work I can’t muster the wherewithal to drive these kinds of projects on my own time.

    I do software development and AI tools are increasingly slipping in as an augmentation. Copilot in the IDE to suggest code (moderately useful and I’d be annoyed to lose it), pull requests with AI to provide an extra analysis or explanation of what a proposed change is doing, etc. So far it seems best suited to raising the baseline effectiveness of people rather than replacing them or raising their ceiling.
