an open workshop.

In an era of AI, what comes next? Notes on emerging possibilities, small experiments and the questions that keep me building.

Begin with the story. Follow the questions.

A lifetime in software, a new era of AI and a question worth keeping the workshop open for: what comes next?

Small experiments can help us explore whether an emerging AI capability changes the task, the interface or who can do the work.

Hold That Thought is a quick scratchpad for fleeting details—and a focused example of what to build and question with AI.

The happy path is exciting. Retries, old data, permissions, and recovery are where software experience becomes a force multiplier.

In an era of AI, I’m interested in the next S curve: the rough beginnings where a different way of working might take shape.

Design, development, QA, documentation, and marketing: AI gives a solo developer more reach, with judgment running through the whole job.

An emerging capability becomes interesting when someone has a reason to use it again.
