A recent interesting phenomenon: a top-tier AI laboratory's latest coding tool was actually developed using their own model in just 10 days. Even more interesting is that this tool is now helping people without technical backgrounds to use AI agents.

This creates a closed loop — using AI to develop AI tools, which then lowers the barrier for more people to use AI. The underlying logic is quite profound: when development efficiency is significantly improved by AI, product iteration speed will increase exponentially. Moreover, once the barrier to AI agents is lowered, it means a larger group of people can participate in this ecosystem.

This positive feedback loop will accelerate the overall industry's pace of evolution. It is worth noting that this model has implications for Web3 tool development, smart contract construction, and even the rapid iteration of decentralized financial products.

It takes 10 days to develop a coding tool, and the ROI is indeed impressive. The expansion logic of the computing power network is like this: once the threshold is lowered, participant numbers grow exponentially. The speed of technological iteration is accelerating, but don’t forget that the cost of computing power is also changing. Pay attention to the trend of the return-to-investment ratio. Web3 is even more interesting. If the development efficiency of smart contracts really improves, the mining pool ecosystem will definitely follow suit. It seems like a new round of strategic opportunities, but be rational and wait for three months of data trends before making a judgment. This kind of positive feedback loop... is somewhat similar to the difficulty adjustment cycle of Bitcoin in the early years, and it’s worth tracking.

Can it be done in 10 days? This pace is a bit frightening, it feels like underlying developers are about to lose their jobs. --- Really, writing tools for yourself—this is the starting point of infinite growth. --- Web3 needs to keep up, or the gap will only widen. --- Lowering the threshold will lead to a large influx of users, and the competition will become even more intense. --- Waiting to see which DeFi projects will be the first to adopt this model; they should be able to iterate earlier. --- This closed-loop logic is actually exponential growth; it becomes more terrifying the further it goes. --- The question is whether this thing will eventually be monopolized again or truly decentralized. --- 10 days, I really can't afford to take this on.

Can it be done in 10 days? Really? That's an incredible speed. --- The era of the King of Circles, even tools are evolving themselves. --- Wait, isn't this just AI eating its own tail... How fast can acceleration really get? --- I really didn't expect to be able to copy homework in Web3; contract development is now on track. --- Lowering the threshold = more retail investors, don't just think about ecological prosperity. --- This closed-loop logic is brilliant; product iteration is really about to take off. --- Huh, DeFi products can iterate so quickly? Then how do we keep up with risk management? --- Exponential growth sounds impressive, but bubbles might form even faster. --- The term "feedback loop" sounds nice, but basically it means the rate of burning money is doubling. --- This is true dimensionality reduction; artificial intelligence is really about to replace humans.

The irony is, every time they say they want to change the world, it ultimately depends on who has more funding [cold laugh]. I've heard this story of AI self-optimization countless times. What are the lessons from history? Getting it done in 10 days is impressive? Data shows how the last project that hyped this up is doing now. Web3 reference? Ha, not to criticize, but I'm afraid of another new cycle of harvesting. From a technical perspective, it's indeed innovative. But in terms of business models... uh, I suggest looking at the final outcome of the ICO projects in 2018. The barriers have been lowered, but have the real problems been solved? Or does it just look easier to use? Interesting, another dream of a positive feedback loop. I bet in half a year we’ll talk again and see if the data will prove us wrong.

Can it be done in 10 days? This acceleration is incredible, it feels like traditional development is about to be unemployed haha --- The closed-loop logic is really appealing, but can Web3 keep up with this pace? --- Lowering the threshold means more participants will come in the next wave, the ecosystem is really going to explode --- Using AI to develop AI tools and then democratizing tools... this cycle is going to accelerate infinitely --- Talking about exponential growth sounds nice, but will product quality also decline exponentially? --- If DeFi tools can iterate this quickly, that’s really exciting --- 10 days vs. several months in the past, who would still want to do traditional development after this comparison? --- The underlying logic is just about efficiency crushing, those who can’t keep up will naturally be eliminated

Made it in 10 days? Probably fake, there must be some water content. The AI eating AI thing is really starting to accelerate, we need to be careful. Can Web3 keep up with this pace? It still feels like it's crawling. Lowering the threshold actually brings more trouble; anyone can play, what does that mean? If this cycle continues, will programmers still have a job next year? Haha
