> The role of AI in non-software shops is going to be interesting

I have friend in west Texas who does industrial electrical gear sales (like those giant spools of cable you see on tractor trailers). He’s 110% good old boy Texan but has adopted and loves AI. He says it’s been a huge help pulling quotes together and other tasks. Coincidentally he lives in Abilene where one of the stargate campuses are going. Btw, the scale of what’s being built in Abilene is like nothing I’ve ever seen.
