dotey · x · 2026-07-31
The blogger points out that the winning formula for current AI coding tools is actually 'copycat + combination': simply replicate the Codex experience, use Phind or Claude Code's SDK for the underlying tech, and integrate a smart LLM.
Big tech companies fail because they refuse to swallow their pride and 'plagiarize.' They insist on building everything from scratch and are constrained to using their own limited models, resulting in poor performance and brain drain.
