You on the other hand keep assuming that startup founders, even in SV are technical enough to envision AI or can change the thesis of their business on a whim of technology change that has been introduced less than a year ago. It's not realistic. Businesses have systems, people, obligations, legacy, etc.

Did you read the blog post? It seems like you may be missing a lot of context here.

I'm not assuming anything, that is my argument. I think you could do a better job countering it than pointing at the status quo of every business in the world. lol.

Me: 'cutting edge startups should use cutting edge tools'

You: 'every business in the world isn't using cutting edge tools!'

  • It's not about the status quo. It's about the speed of change and focus. While I'm all in on building custom agentic loops and building extensions for my pi I have enough bandwidth and xp to see that it's quite easy for business people to be focused on the matters that are completely non-technical. That plus plain sunk cost fallacy and blind denial ofc.
