We should instead be asking how to prepare ourselves as a society—and as individuals—with the skills, mindsets, and infrastructure to survive and thrive after this thing moves through.
AI is a Technological Weather Storm.

Mass unemployment. A loss of meaning. The need to build a different kind of economy.
We shouldn’t be over-rotating on why it’s happening, or who to blame, or how to stop it. It’s weather.

If we’re angry about an earthquake or a hurricane, we should mostly be angry about not being ready to handle what comes after.
- Do people have insurance?
- Can they get healthcare?
- Can their kids go to school?
It’s the same with AI—but it’s the biggest Tech Weather Event we’ve ever had.

It’s not about having more jobs. It’s about having different kinds of people in those roles.
I don’t think most current developer roles transfer neatly into that world.
Some will. Many won’t.
And I think we should start preparing for that now.

I wonder if companies in 2035 will function more like ecosystems of micro-startups—each powered by a builder and a small AI team. Maybe inside Google. Maybe completely independent.

These aren’t traditional devs—they’re full-stack thinkers who know how to solve problems end-to-end, with taste, speed, and context.

Not just coders who can implement instructions. But generalist builders who can:
➡️Understand the problem space
➡️Envision a better solution
➡️Use AI to build it
➡️And bring it to market

Trillions of decisions are made daily.
What if each one had gigabytes—and years—of context to inform it?
That’s the real Total Addressable Market for AI.

The biggest software opportunity going forward?
World-model generation.
For people.
For teams.
For companies.
For everything.
Fresh, rich, connected data = better decisions.

The clearer the world model of a thing—person, team, company—the easier it is to act on.
Fix it. Grow it. Secure it. Optimize it.
Context reduces decision difficulty.

Less context = more expertise required.
More context = less expertise needed.
One of AI’s true powers is lowering how much intelligence is needed—by providing context.
comment in response to

Once you fill in that world model—with details, a timeline, and a narrative—decisions become far easier.
What needed a 5-star General before might be obvious to a Private with full context.
