I used to mark students down for using AI. Now I refuse to mark their papers at all & instead call them in to have a conversation about integrity. I give them a chance to redo their work properly with a grade reduction. It's time consuming, yes, but it's also our job as teachers.

I don't think AI will completely disrupt the SaaS model or software developer jobs. Here's what I think will happen on two ends of the spectrum: - a 10x developer is now a 100x developer. but you can't do 365 days of that a year. it will come and go in a flow state, just like it does now. Periods of slow pace followed by short burts of insane productivity. - a bread and butter 9-5 dev picking up tickets in JIRA can now fix bugs faster but won't be sufficiently motivated to do so. Parkinson's law will apply and the work will take basically as long as it always did. Maybe in the middle there's a perfect inflection point of motivation / expertise / pace that allows a team to just pump out AI-engineered features at breakneck speed, ad infinitum... but I just think human nature will get in the way and it will self-regulate.

at this rate it will take 40 years to touch $2k/mo
