This! I've actually learned a lot about what I don't know by using AI. It made me dig into learning proper systems design, app architecture, etc.

But at the same time the more I read about AI, the more I realize I need to learn about AI. Thus far I'm just using cursor and the Claude code extension alongside obra superpowers, and I've been quite happy with it. But on Twitter I see people with multiple instances of Claude code or open claw talking to each other and I don't even know how to begin to understand what's going on there. But I'm not letting myself get distracted — Claude code and open claw are tools. They could go away at any time. But systems thinking is something that won't go away. At least, that's my gambit.

It’s telling those people mostly talk about the complexity of the AI setup they’ve engineered to write code. Much more so than bragging about the software created by that process.

That's a good point, but I've seen a lot of interesting meta-setups as well (like visualizations of agents interacting with one another).

Does it write good code? I dunno. But it looks cool, and I think interesting in its own right, even if it ends up being functionally useless.
