I have to keep it honest, these last few weeks have completely burned me out. It can be exhausting as a founder (also incredibly energizing), but my latest burnout phase hasn’t come from the long hours or the juggling of tasks. It’s coming from the pace of AI. Every day there’s a new tool, a new update, another stack to learn. New LLMs, visual tools, voice agents, and new MCP releases. Claude 3.7 flew into orbit like it’s nothing. I mean shit, there are 2,000+ generative AI tools out there al...
