    We have not yet scratched the surface of what software can do or what it is worth.

        Out of curiosity, what are some milestones after which you’d say, “now, we have scratched the surface”?

        Executive assistants will make the equivalent of director of engineering salaries, as a third order effect.

        Any ways you think we should be scratching differently? Is scratching the right approach?

        Apple is a great example of this. A traditionally hardware company with some software experiences is doing a 180 degree turn. Anywhere from hardware further enabled by software (camera) to full on software services (TV+). HW is ebbing while SW is flowing with the sine wave.

        I would say scratching the surface would be doing everything humans now do. But then there's the factor of doing it better and coordinatedly, and then even doing better things. Imagining bigger and better goals will be the best thing. Planning and accomplishing those goals too.

        AI-assisted programming will get us further, but the application of software is up to the humans (for now). The biggest mover will be Neuralink.
