The quality bar of a $5T company 😱 what kinda progress bar is that, and those white lines at the top and bottom of the window buttons

This is so cool. DHH absolutely roasting the frontier-lab doomer class, at Rails World 2026 in Austin.
taking a sledgehammer to the “I worked at a frontier lab, therefore trust my apocalypse forecast” mindset.
"Maybe we should lean in with a little bit more optimism, with a little bit of P-Bloom instead of oh so much P-Doom. The chances of this panning out and us getting abundance and joy is so vastly greater than us getting the doom."

It's time to put down the chisels and embrace the JCBs of the trade, skill is still required
DHH is probably one of the top software artisans of the past decade. Hearing him speak with this much conviction and transparency about one of the most polarizing topics in software right now, writing code by hand vs. with AI, is something pretty much every software engineer should hear a few times.
Especially those still on the wrong side of history.

Room for improvement for sure but we must not kid ourselves, there is zero way to tell good AI from real life when viewed through pixels
If you think that's scary wait till neural implants are widespread we'll have the same problem even looking through our own eyes
Are we still pretending that we're not cooked?
This is an ad. Human content still outperforms most of my ad accounts.
But the imagination of humans with AI ads is slowly scaling too.
Wouldn't have imagined this 10 years ago.

The "whiteboard defense:" I should be able to pull you aside at any moment and ask you to explain any customer-facing system you've shipped. You should be able to clearly explain how it works and defend the decisions you made. This is my benchmark for responsible AI usage.
I don't expect line-level familiarity with the code. I don't care if you remember the exact function name or implementation detail. You may not even know it. I don't care.
But if I ask "why did you do X instead of Y?", "what happens if this actor behaves maliciously?", "what data structure did you use here and why?", or "where does this fail?" you should be able to answer confidently.
For PoCs, demos, experiments, whatever: I don't care. Generate 100% of it and understand none of it. Speed over quality every time in those specific scenarios.
But if you're shipping customer-facing work, you can't be shipping things you don't understand at a high level.

High spend isn't a flex, it's inefficiency. Google and xAI are flat today, but when enterprises stop burning cash on tokenmaxxing, things will flip rapidly

A new era in soft power diplomacy 🇸🇬 🇹🇭
Meanwhile, in Bangkok, Thailand’s prime minister sang “Let It Be” and “Blowin’ in the Wind” as Singapore’s prime minister played guitar.

💯 except you're charged for every mistake and when token allowance runs out without warning midway they shut up shop

If you're a B2C company every dollar of marketing spend is negated when this is the candidate experience
If you're planning on using such a system what does it give you over a screening quiz before a human-human call?
It’s remarkable how well the AI interviewers hold up to people’s attempts to gaslight them.
This is a very funny one though 😂

Claude Code is vibecoded and full of spyware, it's possible Anthropic doesn't even know what's in there. After reading this report, we are banning it from our systems and strongly encourage other enterprises to do the same. It is an unacceptable security risk.
