As a modern architect, you don't want to spend your time reinventing the "bricks" of user auth and database schemas. You want to use a standardized foundation so you can focus your vision on the high-value custom logic.

As I'm thinking more and more about what's happening in our market, I'm applying that thinking, of course, to WordPress itself too.

The bear case for WordPress is getting louder: "It's too heavy. It’s bloated. AI can just generate a lean, bespoke engine for my specific needs."

But in my post I explain why I favor the bull case, and why you should still be betting on WordPress. WordPress scale is its greatest security. It's a battle-tested foundation for 40% of the web.

It belongs to those who master:

* Intent: Defining the why
* Direction: Steering the solution
* Logic: The structural how

In a world where execution is a commodity, you have to compete on vision.

I have been thinking a lot about the impact of AI on code and on value creation. I think I've gotten closer to it in my latest post.

The value of a line of code is hitting zero.

AI is eating the open source commons that built it. If a machine can rebuild your tool from scratch in seconds, your copyright isn't a moat anymore. We're seeing the Rise of the Architect. Success no longer belongs to the "bricklayers" of syntax.

Today’s web runs on distributed systems, verifiable code, and modern APIs. Not on a single, centralized repository that still relies on Subversion. The open web has evolved, and if WordPress wants to remain part of it, it needs to evolve too.

I found out more over the last year as we worked on FAIR, but I also found out more specifically this week, when I was building a Glossary plugin for WordPress we needed for the FAIR website. https://t.co/68WvnvJ2bM
