> I’ve seen many of these people approach implausible tasks, ones we wouldn’t even have chosen to tackle before, with reflexive and brilliant usage of AI to get 100X the work done.

Ah yes, the 100x engineer delusion. Why not a 1000x?

If the engineer is 10x, the AI is 10x, and they buy a laptop with 10x flops, install lights with 10x the lumens in their office, give them coffee ground 10x finer, they could all easily be 100,000x engineers.
