The final post in a thread covering Gergely Orosz's Pragmatic Engineer Unplugged interview with Typesafe AI founder Diogo (ex-OpenAI RLHF). Diogo's stated north star: "intelligence becomes so unbelievably boring, it's like databases" — intelligence as reliable, invisible infrastructure. This ties to his product philosophy that Jev reports its own confidence, since "you can't automate anything if it doesn't tell you if it's in the 99 or 1%."
