Steve Krouse: with fast enough AI, meetings will be the work, not talk about it
Flomerboy · x · 2026-11-13
Steve Krouse sketches a future where sufficiently smart, fast, cheap AI turns meetings into the work itself: augmented conversations where the work is finished before the meeting ends, eliminating slow solo homework afterward. He credits Anthropic as among the first to prototype this, but suspects we need 1k+ tokens per second—or more—for it to feel magical.
