The more time goes on the more I think there is basically no moat in AI products because everyone is literally building the same shit. There is zero creativity in AI product right now. Yeah they might be different designs, but they are all the same exact product under the skin.

Cursor, Devin, Factory, Amp Code, Codex, Claude Codex, Antigravity, Conductor, OpenCode, T3 Code, Orca, Emdash, and hundreds of more of the same exact shit.

Yeah they might market it same fancy revolutionary technology like Orbs, but it not it just an agent harness local or remote. You can do orbs literally with Claude Code with a single prompt it not special.

We have AI that lets you build things freely and yet here we are all building the same exact thing.

This is just coding harness. The personal assistant space is the exact same.

Agreed. I think coding agents have shown us one very important thing: It was never about the code.

Your idea and how well you can execute on it, i.e. how well you understand the problem space, is what has always mattered.

Coding being so easy now has just pulled back the curtain and shown the world that software developers really don't have much left to contribute. It's been done, a thousandfold.

I feel like everyone already knew the code was the easy part, even pre-AI.

Maybe, but I feel like there's a reason that the "useful" AI-generated work all seems to come from people who could get to the same result given "infinite" time anyways.

AI tool usage reflects and amplifies your own skill sets IMO, and I think it's pretty hard to be amazing at software architecture design but be bad at coding.

what is Orbs?

▲hmokiguess 6 hours ago | parent | next [-]

I think it's like a Plumbus

Which btw is very similar to Lorpi

Agents running in a remote vm.

weren't you all running agents in contained vms before???
