A year ago, I wrote my own code and used Claude to propose additions and find answers to my questions. Now, I don’t write code. I give high-level instructions to Claude and it runs experiments to test ideas for me at a pace I never could have achieved on my own. I expect this trend to continue, possibly to a point where AI development is dramatically faster than today and involves almost no human input. I don’t think the world is ready for this possibility. I’m optimistic that a solution exists, but that solution will require thoughtful AI governance. I don’t see how it can arise from competition between AI companies alone.AI Verified (Jul 2026)
