Show notes

Show notes

📝 Theo put out a video saying you should turn off Claude Code's memory, and it triggered me enough to record a response. My argument: the real problem with all AI is the gap between what's in your head and what the AI knows you want. I walk through how LifeOS closes that gap with the Ideal State Artifact, one document that works as both the build spec and the testing harness, and show the skill system and blogging pipeline that run on it.

Most Companies Aren't Anywhere Near Ready for AI. It's not that companies aren't using AI—it's that they can't.

In this video I lay why I think we're all heading towards a single place that we should start getting ready for now. I think getting this early will put you 1-3 years ahead of everyone.
