Pretty sure I have seven (maybe more?) AI side projects in motion right now—and that’s not counting the stack of products I’m dogfooding at work.

For me, this era of AI isn’t just about things getting easier. It’s about things getting more interesting. More experiments. More tinkering. More half-built tools that do one thing weirdly well. More notebooks, prompts, prototypes, and “wait, what if we…” moments.

Yes, it’s more “work”—but it’s the fun kind. The kind I choose to do. The kind that keeps me up late not because I have to, but because I want to.

This moment in tech feels like a playground, and I’m making the most of recess.
