Episode 2 — the spoken companion to the essay "AI lowers the barrier to build." I'm an investor, not an engineer. Yet this past week I shipped a website, an AI agent that thinks and writes alongside me, and the backend that runs it — without writing a line of the code. What changed isn't me. It's the floor. This is the democratization of intelligence, and it's not a forecast about what AI might someday do — it's something an ordinary person can already do today. The barrier between an idea and a working thing has collapsed, and most people are still pricing it at the old level. The honest part: the work didn't disappear, it moved — from code to context. The new literacy isn't learning to program; it's learning to direct. I take up the real risks too — the flood of confident nonsense from people who skip the judgment, and the chance these tools concentrate power instead of spreading it — and I say what would change my mind.
