现有利益相关方在未来仍有一席之地
本文是对格鲁伯此前"AI是技术，不是产品"一文的补充。针对Steven Levy关于苹果必须打造"杀手级AI产品"的观点，格鲁伯指出：即便技术上可行，像Uber和Lyft这样的现有巨头并不会乖乖被AI代理"取代"，它们会自己决定在哪些平台上提供叫车服务。沃尔玛至今不接受Apple Pay的事实证明，既得利益者完全有能力减缓新技术的普及速度。把未来交给OpenAI或Anthropi，对Uber和Lyft而言无异于自断前程。

The "just-say-no" engineer who blocked feature development by citing risks was a product of the zero-interest-rate policy (ZIRP) era. With cheap capital, companies tolerated slow, cautious developers. As interest rates rose, firms prioritized speed, making this archetype unviable.
The article argues that the "just-say-no" engineer archetype—who blocks projects by raising objections—was a product of the zero-interest-rate period (ZIRP), when companies had money to burn and tolerated low output. With higher interest rates and tighter budgets, engineers who slow down work are now a liability rather than a luxury.
The article argues that the "just-say-no" engineer—who rejects new projects and features to maintain software quality—was a product of the Zero Interest Rate Policy (ZIRP) era. During ZIRP, companies had ample funding to tolerate slow, quality-focused development. With higher interest rates and cost-cutting pressures, this type of engineer has become less viable in the current tech environment.
The "just-say-no" engineer who blocks all features and decisions was a product of the zero-interest-rate policy (ZIRP) era, when cheap capital allowed companies to tolerate unproductive employees. In today's higher-rate environment, that attitude is no longer viable.
The article details the complex engineering behind human breathing—diaphragm mechanics, gas exchange, and posture effects—and argues healthy respiration is often undervalued until problems arise. It warns that modern lifestyles can impair breathing efficiency.
