I don't mean that literally. I know what it means, but there are so many interpretations that things can get lost. I started writing again because I was scared. Afraid that I would not be able to do something which gave me joy, purpose and even income at some point in my life anymore. Afraid say ChatGPT go collect my talent.
I pay for a number of these tools monthly, so I have a duty to use them for everything. This changes nothing. These letters will not see the 4 walls of an LLM.
Let's talk about Capstone
This crazy idea I decided to birth. We're still pregnant, but due to go into labour anytime soon. I strongly believe in a few things. Firstly, that the world is changing so fast, we can barely notice it. Is the earth really not flat? Are we really revolving around the sun? You catch my drift.
I'm going against popular grain in how I'm bringing this to market. Firstly, there's little to no user research, just a strong delusional idea that I am right, and I know what I am doing. Just kidding. Of course, there's anecdotal research, or is there?
I'm a product manager, I'm supposed to know better.
After coughing out a few thousand grand on building a solid MVP, I have decided that I will take control of this product myself. Once the rails are in place. I love AI, and I've vibecoded several products that work, and are secure. I just don't trust easily. You see, across myself and my co-founder, there was a healthy dose of valid skepticism about the viability of that path. Claude has a place, for now, let's take the traditional path.
I'm the quasi-CTO in our ventures, I'm supposed to know better.
In the type of fiction I like to read, there's always an army, no matter how small. A group of people fighting to prevent evil from taking over the world…something along those lines at least. I'm curious what my army will look like.
See you next week.
