Over the past year, I've used generative AI (ChatGPT, Claude) across product development, writing, and coding. Here's what I've learned: give it minimal context, and it will generate a refined first draft immediately. The problem isn't that these drafts are bad. They look finished when the real creative work is just beginning.
I was recently searching for the perfect domain name for a product I'm working on, a challenge that reinforced what I've been observing about the role of human creativity in the age of AI.
I've been exploring AI-Driven Infrastructure Compilers—specialized systems that generate production-ready code for specific domains like secure APIs or real-time collaboration, rather than relying on general-purpose AI for foundational infrastructure.
I've been reimagining how mobile apps could work with Local-Only architecture that stores data directly on your device and uses peer-to-peer connectivity for sharing, eliminating the need for cloud infrastructure while maintaining privacy and user control over their data.
I share three defining moments from before I turned eighteen that shaped my core values: learning that only I can define my potential, accepting what's beyond my control, and understanding that showing up with integrity matters even without immediate recognition.
