Less Than 0.1% Outside SF Use AI for All Work, Signaling Massive Market Gap
gabriel1 · x · 2026-08-07
A developer building in public points out that less than 0.1% of people outside San Francisco are using AI for all their work, a number expected to eventually reach 100%.
They argue that the current interface and narrative around AI tools are fundamentally broken, preventing mainstream adoption. To solve this, their team is shipping fast and iterating in public to discover the right product-market fit. The founder is also actively recruiting top-tier engineers who push AI agents to their limits.
