🇸🇬 Singapore vs 🇮🇩 Indonesia on Claude AI usage — straight from Anthropic’s Economic Index (March 2026). Singapore ranks #1 out of 116 countries with a 5.53x usage index. Indonesia sits at #95 with just 0.30x. That’s a massive 18x gap. In SG 🇸🇬, people use Claude for building/debugging AI systems, advanced scientific research, and professional business analysis. In ID 🇮🇩, the top uses are academic assignments, creative fiction, religious/spiritual content, and data extraction. Every day my colleagues here in Indo rave about how Claude has changed their lives. I’m glued to podcasts like Dwarkesh and TBPN, thinking that ID is on the same AI wave as the rest of the world. Turns out… the rest of the country isn't. It’s just today that I realized — I’ve been living in a complete bubble.

"Using coding agents well is taking every inch of my 25 years of experience as a software engineer." Simon Willison (@simonw) is one of the most prolific independent software engineers and most trusted voices on how AI is changing the craft of building software. He co-created Django, coined the term "prompt injection," and popularized the terms "agentic engineering" and "AI slop." In our in-depth conversation, we discuss: 🔸 Why November 2025 was an inflection point 🔸 The "dark factory" pattern 🔸 Why mid-career engineers (not juniors) are the most at risk right now 🔸 Three agentic engineering patterns he uses daily: red/green TDD, thin templates, hoarding 🔸 Why he writes 95% of his code from his phone while walking the dog 🔸 Why he thinks we're headed for an AI Challenger disaster 🔸 How a pelican riding a bicycle became the unofficial benchmark for AI model quality Listen now 👇 youtu.be/wc8FBhQtdsA
