Ce matin j’ai regardé l’audition de @arthurmensch (notre SamAltman Français) devant la commission d’enquête sur les vulnérabilités d’Internet et y’a un parallèle historique que beaucoup ratent complètement sur l’IA. On nous vend “l’IA va remplacer les développeurs”. Mais en réalité, l’IA ressemble surtout à ce qu’a été le toyotisme pour l’industrie : une industrialisation massive de la production. Avant, un développeur écrivait tout à la main. Puis sont arrivés : - les frameworks - les IDE - StackOverflow - le cloud - Docker - le CI/CD - Copilot À chaque étape : moins de friction, moins de temps perdu, plus de standardisation, plus de rendement. L’IA est juste la continuité logique. Et ce phénomène dépasse largement le dev. L’histoire économique entière fonctionne comme ça. Le tracteur n’a pas “supprimé l’agriculture”. Il a explosé la productivité agricole. Excel n’a pas supprimé les comptables. Il a industrialisé une partie du travail comptable. Photoshop n’a pas supprimé les designers. Il a démultiplié la production créative. Amazon n’a pas supprimé le commerce. Il a industrialisé la logistique. À chaque révolution : la production devient moins chère, plus rapide, plus standardisée. Et la valeur se déplace ailleurs. Aujourd’hui dans le software, la valeur monte vers : - l’architecture - la distribution - la compréhension métier - le produit - l’orchestration - la capacité à itérer vite Parce que le coût marginal du software tend vers zéro. Et c’est probablement pour ça que les meilleurs ingénieurs s’adaptent très vite à l’IA : ils ont déjà vécu 15 ans d’abstraction progressive. Le vrai changement n’est pas : “la machine code à notre place”. Le vrai changement c’est : “une seule personne peut désormais produire comme une mini-entreprise”.

We used to go to a special website, ask strangers for help with programming, and get humiliated in return

Ça joue @DeisimGame ou quoi

remember when Andres Freund basically saved the entire internet because he noticed a 200ms delay for his SSH login?

Be honest, is this relatable??

when the whole team is on claude code

The most impressive change that AI caused is that now engineers are writing detailed specs

they had to do the strikes before the Claude subscription expired

guys will pay $20/mo for onlyfans but not claude. brother you’re subscribing to the wrong model

I'm pretty sure everyone at my company saw this article and now they all think we're in an AI crisis. We're not in an AI crisis. We use Claude to summarize Slack threads. But here's what's actually interesting: this whole panic reveals something nobody wants to admit. Every company in America has been bullshitting about their "AI strategy" for two years. We all saw the hype. We all knew we had to say something. So we rebranded our existing automation as "AI-powered" and called it a day. My company isn't special. We're all doing the same thing. The problem is now the executives actually believe their own bullshit. They think we have "significant AI exposure" because they've been telling investors we're "AI-first." I just got pulled into an emergency meeting. Six executives asking me to explain our "AI dependency matrix." There is no AI dependency matrix. There's Claude for meeting summaries, there's some sentiment analysis in our support tickets that came free with Zendesk, and there's whatever Gmail is doing when it autocompletes my sentences. But I can't say that in a room full of people who told their boards we're "transforming the business through AI." So I said we have "distributed AI touchpoints across multiple vendors with no single point of failure." Which is technically true. We use a bunch of different services that all have AI features we mostly ignore. The CFO asked if we should "hedge our AI exposure." I have no idea what that means. Neither does he. What am I going to do: nothing. Because in three weeks, Anthropic will say something reassuring, the stocks will recover, and everyone will forget this happened. But I'll have documentation showing I recommended a "risk assessment" that mysteriously never got prioritized. The funniest part is that half these executives probably don't even know what Anthropic is. They just saw "AI" and "crash" in the same headline. We're all pretending. The whole industry is pretending. And articles like this just remind everyone how fragile the pretending is.

Boss: We’re back in the office, 5 days a week. Non-negotiable. Employee: But I was hired on remote basis… I can’t afford the commute, and I have no childcare. 5 weeks later... Employee: Here’s my notice. I found a remote job where they actually value work-life balance. Boss: Wait, we can work something out! Employee: Too late. Forcing people back just for “teamwork and culture” while they still sit on Zoom in the office? That’s missing the point. Real culture happens when you respect what employees actually need to do their best. How true is this....
