01 · Makers, in the age of AI
Build the thing you wish existed
AI has made it possible for one person to build the app, website or tool they need. So a new kind of maker has appeared: someone who notices a need in their own life, or in the lives of people around them (a family routine, a way to study, a daily chore at work) and simply builds for it.
That brings a freedom big-company software rarely has. Something made for a handful of people can fit them exactly, try an odd idea, and change the same day it needs to.
