10x means to me that i can finish a month of work in max 2 days and go cloud watching. What does it mean for you?

Sometimes 10x can mean that I start things that I would have never started before, knowing it would take a long time. Or that I can have any of the agentic stuff "explore" libs, stacks and frameworks I wanted to look at, but had no time. Or distill some vague docs and blog posts to find common use cases for tech x. And so on.

It's not always a literal 10x time for taskA w/ AI vs taskA w/o AI...

A 60 minute script becomes 6 minutes
