[!summary]If you tell a friend they can now instantly create any app, they’ll probably say “Cool! Now I need to think of an idea.

I found myself subconsciously benchmarking Claude against the human engineers I’ve worked with. It’s better than the anxious juniors who needed specs for every edge case, but not as good as the senior engineers with both clean code and product sense. Like people, Claude tends toward hubris—I learned to always test things myself before accepting “It’s done!” Yet it, unlike humans, is preternaturally patient, whirring away tokens to fulfill every superfluous request.

I now get why software engineers were AGI-pilled first—using Claude Code has fundamentally rewired my understanding of what AI can do. I knew in theory about coding agents but wasn’t impressed until I built something. It’s the kind of thing you don’t get until you try. When talking to a standard chatbot, it still feels plausible that AI is “fancy autocomplete” or a “bullshit machine.” They write cutesy poems or dole life advice; they can answer trivia confidently and don’t always know when they’re wrong. I’m a daily active user of ChatGPT, but it feels more like an adviser than something replacing my work. Claude Code, meanwhile, is clearly autonomous. It can do and not just say. It’s impossible to watch it make an app and maintain the facade of AI as “next-token prediction.” With a one-sentence prompt—create a YouTube transcription app that looks like Windows XP—it will find design inspiration, write code, and open-source it on Github. This is not mere memory and regurgitation. This is something that can accomplish a novel multipart task.

The first-order effect of Claude Code is software abundance. It will soon cost near-nothing to have whatever app you want. Vibecoding is already shifting the build vs. buy calculus: maybe we’ll all spend less money on SaaS (and more on Claude credits instead). And because it’s economical to build custom tools for narrow personal, small business, and community use cases, exiting enshittification is easier than ever before.

What’s actually tough about my job is coming up with novel frames for important ideas and devising sentences that are equal parts sharp, lively, and true. You can have the best Deep Research reports in the world, and still lack a unique point of view.
Pienso lo mismo respecto de la escritura en general y la elaboración de guiones para reels.

I’m not the only one having this issue. Just because Claude Code can be wielded by a nontechnical person does not mean it’ll be a big productivity boon. Sentence generation is a software problem, but insight is not. Sending reminders is a software problem, but motivation is not. When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail; when you can conjure solutions at will, you won’t stop to ponder why you built them.

Recall the viral METR study on AI-assisted coding, where engineers estimated a big boost but got much slower instead—I wonder if AI made coding easier but worse. I also used the AI meeting notes app Granola until I realized I never read a single one of its recaps. Doing things the slow way forces you to make smart 80/20 tradeoffs. Whether atoms or bits, most of our problems are deeper than needing more stuff.⁴
En qué medida la disponibilidad de programación barata y sencilla nos lleva a perdernos en un mar de soluciones sin problemas?

I dubbed this phase my “Claude Code psychosis,” though some argue “mania” is the better term. It’s addictive to express a vision and see it instantly appear, getting into the build/test/iterate loop at an electrifying rate. There’s an apt joke that Claude Code is GPT-4o for nerds: it reflects your desires and makes them real, providing the rush of creation with minimal sweat.
Claude code manía, o el craving que genera el poder desarrollar soluciones de software así de rápido, sin tener ningún conocimiento de código. Es como tener una varita mágica.

Y mucha gente aún no ha tenido esta experiencia. Todos aquellos que usan un chatbot y no agentes. La diferencia es que el agente HACE cosas por ti, mientras que el chatbot solo te DICE cosas. Estas pueden ser muy útiles, pero la diferencia de eficiencia entre copiar y pegar texto, o seguir paso a paso instrucciones y ver a la máquina trabajar para generar el resultado es impresionante.

Este es el supuesto a la base de los barefoot developers y la razón por la cual es interesante pensar usos a nivel de sistema educativo, ya que ahí hay una demos da importante de software que no ha sido resuelta.

The second-order effect of Claude Code was realizing how many of my problems are not software-shaped. Having these new tools did not make me more productive; on the contrary, Claudecrastination probably delayed this post by a week.
Claudecrastinación, tremendo concepto. Herencia de la Claude-manía.

Esto en parte ayuda a entender el efecto del workslop. Es, también, un nuevo desafío a los equipos que, al no verse enfrentados con el mismo nivel de fricción al desarrollar soluciones, también evitan el esfuerzo que forja su visión y entendimiento compartido, así como sus capacidades de comunicación. Creo que a esto mismo hace referencia el concepto de cognitive debt, pero no estoy seguro.

Muy importante como pieza de evidencia para respaldar declaraciones asociadas a los efectos nocivos del uso indiscriminado de la IA.
