  • Some projects get accelerated by AI, some get slowed down.
    • The ones that get accelerated are ones that can be overseen by one human.
      • No coordination with other humans.
    • The ones that get slowed down are the ones that require coordination between multiple humans.
      • LLMs make it worse: from herding cats to herding cheetahs.
    • The main difference is whether human coordination is in the loop or not.
    • Human coordination is the bottleneck.
