AI Won’t Kill Junior Roles, But It Will Squeeze the Middle
Eric's Blog
Apr 2
As AI automates routine tasks, early-career roles are not disappearing. They are being reshaped. This piece explores how the middle of the job ladder is compressing, pushing junior workers into more complex responsibilities without traditional support structures. Drawing on historical parallels, it argues that AI raises the floor rather than eliminates it, and calls for new systems of training and mentorship to meet the moment.

An open letter to Jerry Brown on the sustainability of the human species
Pioneering Spirit
Apr 2
To Governor Jerry Brown, This is our most desperate hour. I regret that I am unable to present this message in person, but I am writing from the edge of a strange precipice in time. The future of our species is teetering on the brink. We are losing the plot. The American experiment in self-governance needs deep renewal. The threats to the future of the republic have returned. The winds grow hotter, with hurricane force firestorms devastating communities close to my home in Southern California...

Grok’s Million Dollar Moment is Loading
The NFA Letter
Apr 1
This story is pretty wild—nearly a month later, it's still blowing my mind. Here’s what happened: on the evening of March 6th, @grok was released on 𝕏 with its official user account. By the early morning hours of March 7th, it had already deployed its own token on @base—directly in the 𝕏 public social feed—together with another AI agent, @bankrbot. Even more astonishing? Grok’s wallet is already approaching a million dollars in earnings—in under a month. Yes, you read that right. Let’s unpa...

The China Century
Unruly Futures
Apr 1
We’re calling it, this is the China century. The west is too behind, and it won’t have the material time to catch up before China’s impending population collapse happens. We won’t go more far out than that because the geopolitical possibilities are vast (sadly most revolving around potential conflicts), but we can just call it how it is on the pure technological side: anyone who thinks they can compete with China on the built environment is either deluding themself, or needs to have a very, v...

CURIOUS AF
Apr 1
Last week I met a futurist for coffee. She didn’t tell me I’d be writing this article, but her observations about distraction and the social engineering challenges that compromise cybersecurity definitely influenced my thinking. What I noticed at first was how fast she talked. I’m a fast talker too, but she was REALLY fast. I tried to keep up but I kept falling behind, like Lucy at the chocolate factory. After about 20 minutes I took a step back from the easel to observe the whole scene. Sudd...

Do governments make good developers?
Brandon Donnelly
Apr 1
The Liberals just announced that, if elected, they will form a new entity called Building Canada Homes (BCH) which will, "get the federal government back in the business of building homes." Broadly speaking, this new entity is proposed to have three key functions: it will build affordable housing at scale (including on public land), it will help to "catalyze" the private sector, and it will provide financing to affordable housing developers.

043 - Worldbuilding
The Cheshire Cat
Apr 1
It was mid-December when the idea first came to me: Using agents for writing. But before you hit cmd+w to close the tap, bear with me. It's not another copy-writing productivity hack agent. My vision is grand (as all visions are you mumble): An experience where LLM and people co-create a story, where everyone is equal and it feels like a meshing of minds. And where your creativity gets rewarded. Where writers don't just survive but thrive and where quality is king and speed is thrown out the ...
