There's this 60% number that keeps sticking with me.

Think about it: the world's top AI engineers are offloading the majority of their actual work to their own AI models. They're not just using these tools as assistants anymore—they're delegating core engineering tasks to them.

Which brings us to a much more interesting question than whether AGI exists.

It's whether our current definition of AGI even matters anymore. Because if the smartest people building these systems can't distinguish between using AI and becoming dependent on AI... maybe we've already crossed a threshold we haven't properly named yet.

ngl, these 60% numbers are a bit scary... Top engineers are all using AI to do their work, so who the hell is still thinking about what AGI is?

Nah but 60% — this number is really impressive. Top engineers are already using AI to get work done, while we're still arguing about when AGI will arrive? It's already here.

yo 60% is wild... but ngl this hits different when you think about supply chain verification. like, if top engineers can't tell where *they* end and their AI begins, how tf are we supposed to trust farm-to-fork transparency? we're basically running smart contracts on autopilot at this point lmao

Honestly, these 60% of things are quite heartbreaking... Top engineers are all lazily using AI, so why are we still here worrying about when AGI will arrive?
