- AI isn't coming for your creativity. It's coming for your lack of diligence. People talk a lot about #AGI and "super-intelligence," but the immediate disruption is much simpler: AI is killing "vibe-based" decision-making.
- The hard truth is: Most "knowledge work" (even at high levels) isn't actually novel reasoning. It is retrieval + synthesis of known strategies to a very high standard.
- So while many people assume AI is a tool for the lazy, if you were lazy before AI (operating on "vibes," skipping research, trusting your gut over data), AI is a trap. You will just generate "synthetic vibes" faster. You won't spot the hallucinations. You will produce high-volume mediocrity.Jan 31, 2026 16:18
- But for diligent people AI is a game changer! Think about the person who already cared about checking edge cases, looking up standard protocols and validating assumptions. Previously, that rigor was expensive. It took hours. It was the bottleneck. Now that friction is gone!
- Diligent people can now run that rigorous process 100x faster. They don't use AI to skip the thinking. They use it to scale their standards. The gap between people who care to look stuff up and people who don't isn't shrinking. It's about to become unbridgeable! #AI #FutureOfWork
