Just had a conversation with this dude named Michael. He's young but already building some crazy.
Like, he created this tool that finds calendar links and schedules meetings automatically. Scheduled like a 1,000+ calls in a day by guessing their calendar usernames. Degenerate.
He's also building this AI that can have conversations with people and it sounds freakishly human. Slightly terrified.
Best part, there's this whole community of young, self-taught builders like him who are just crushing it. They're all hanging out in these underground hackathon servers and Discord channels. New world.
