Episode notes
Fidji's CEO of Applications Role
- Fidji Simo transitioned from leading Instacart to working on AGI at OpenAI.
- She views managing AI applications as akin to managing complex logistics with high stakes.
Vibe Coding Tools are Retrofits
- Current vibe coding tools mostly replicate 2010s IDE models, lacking a full AI-driven UX step.
- Existing tools like Cursor feel clunky and are not yet the next-gen coding experience.
Choose Simpler Cloud Platforms
- Prefer simpler cloud platforms like DigitalOcean or Vercel over AWS for vibe coding.
- Use platforms with managed databases and straightforward deployment to ease development complexity.
