Solo Dev Ships 3 Projects in a Year with AI; Why Does Enterprise AI Stall?
rickasaurus · x · 2026-08-13
A developer shared that they are about to land their third project this year using AI, mostly working alone—projects that would have previously taken a sizable team a year each to complete.
This perfectly illustrates the points from the quoted post regarding why AI adoption stalls inside companies:
- Lack of Imagination: Adopting AI isn't just asking "can it do X?". It requires breaking muscle memory and rebuilding workflows from first principles, which most people lack the imagination or hard skills to execute.
- Leadership Gap: Leaders often fail to provide the necessary strategic backing.
