Voices I keep
Software 1.0 is hand-written code; Software 2.0 is the weights of neural networks; Software 3.0 is the prompt.
Andrej KarpathySoftware 3.0, May 2026
My takeA neat taxonomy, but it understates the conversion cost. Translating an SOP into a prompt is far harder than translating pseudocode into code — what you have to capture is tacit knowledge, not explicit logic.
The most durable skill of this era is learning anything you want to learn.
Naval RavikantAlmanack, 2020
My takeTrue ten years ago, even truer today. When tools have a half-life of 18 months, the transferable meta-skills are where the real compounding happens.

About

About this daily

Tsinghua undergrad · AI PM @ major tech co · 100M+ user product growth · AI-pilled

I'm Carol. By day I build AI products; by night I write down the people, ideas and observations I want to keep. This isn't a blog — it's closer to an AI-pilled daily, kept open to whoever finds it useful.

AI gives us more information and less judgement. So this daily walks through it for you, then keeps the part I actually wanted to say after reading it. Each piece should be worth reading twice.

If you're also thinking about AI in relation to product, expression, or the shape of your life, drop a contact — or just talk to my digital twin.
