In Episode 46, Pierson and Bilal make the case most builders don't want to hear — stop chasing model releases and start building better systems.

Naval just said "waste tokens, save time." Microsoft burned their entire AI budget in 4 months. The cost conversation is changing fast — and this episode gets into why your processes matter more than your benchmarks.

From there:

• Claude AgentView — 10 parallel agents in one unified screen
• The unified API architecture Pierson rebuilt for Jellypod to serve both humans and agents
• Slash goals, HTML artifacts and front-loading agent context
• Claude Code Routines — Pierson's 5am health check that files its own bug reports in Linear
• Why the models are already far beyond what most people can extract from them
• The Suits CEO crossword analogy and what a real software factory actually looks like
