Human Takeoff

I'm becoming open to the idea of an AI Takeoff Scenario, because I'm experiencing a human takeoff scenario.

I'm pushing so much code. Real code, that achieves the desired outcome.

It's also lower quality code, on average, probably. But as the old saying goes, quantity has a quality all of its own.

More is just better.

I think software developers are going to learn The Bitter Lesson. More is better. Bigger is better. Machines at scale are smarter, faster, and will simply out-compete humans.

At least, that's my take.

I'm probably overindexing on quantity because I'm feeling productive.

And I probably don't want NASA ripping bong hits as they high-five Claude.

Then again, I'd love to see how LLMs perform in extreme test harnesses (that I assume NASA has).

My money is agents would love love all that clear feedback.

And I bet fine-tuning a bespoke model against NASA's code constraints would be super effective as well.

Point is, I'm not NASA, and I'm more than happy to rip fat turns of pure codex over a dozen projects in parallel.

I'm literally a 10x engineer now. Good, bad, and ugly.

That's human takeoff.

Or maybe it's human-assisted AI takeoff. All the coders in the world teaching frontier models the workflows of software development.

Whatever, I'm building like mad and being orders of magnitude more productive than I was 6 months ago.

I'll take it.
