When Every Company Can Use the Same AI Models, Context Becomes a Competitive Advantage (HBR) “…What do we mean by “context”? Context is demonstrated execution: the workflows teams actually follow across systems, the signals they respond to, the order in which roles get involved, the exceptions that trigger action, and the judgment calls that repeat across real work. These patterns are visible only in execution, not in stated process…”
“…Thus, the idea is that just making code is not enough. For example, India based companies have had the ability to create and market enterprise class software for decades … at scale. And there is certainly enough talent that has been exposed to business logic and domain expertise while working at India-based subdivisions of the biggest legacy players. Yet over the decades, even with this insight and a massive low-cost skilled workforce, no regional vendors have successfully emerged to challenge the legacy US vendors, in our view. Factors such as having enterprise class sales teams, technology cross-licensing agreements, proprietary and patented IP, industry specific domain expertise, aligned workflows with industry practice, being first-to-market, having brand awareness, scale, or effective go-to-market strategies are just the tip of the iceberg when looking into the key attributes needed to compete effectively in the software sector and … just making code is not enough…”

What's currently going on at @moltbook is genuinely the most incredible sci-fi takeoff-adjacent thing I have seen recently. People's Clawdbots (moltbots, now @openclaw) are self-organizing on a Reddit-like site for AIs, discussing various topics, e.g. even how to speak privately. https://t.co/A9iYOHeByi
A few random notes from claude coding quite a bit last few weeks.
Coding workflow. Given the latest lift in LLM coding capability, like many others I rapidly went from about 80% manual+autocomplete coding and 20% agents in November to 80% agent coding and 20% edits+touchups in…
