Stop focusing on AI model improvements.
AI SYSTEMS are the thing to watch.
People are valuable in jobs because they connect dots and can do many different things. They don't just excel at one task - they synthesize, adapt, pull from different contexts.
That's exactly what these breakthroughs delivered:
Claude Code: A model that could finally touch the world. Write files. Execute commands. Build.
MCP: A model that could connect to anything. Any tool, any API, any system.
Skills: A model that gains specialized capabilities on demand.
Notice what's missing? Not one mention of being "smarter."
Integration beats intelligence. Every time.
The iPhone wasn't revolutionary because of processor speed. It was the App Store - a system connecting capabilities.
A senior engineer isn't valuable for raw coding ability. It's knowing which systems to connect and when.
What's valuable now isn't building a smarter model. It's building a unified system that connects dots.
Because isolated intelligence is like having the world's best brain in a jar. Impressive. Useless.
The winners won't have the smartest models. They'll have the most connected systems.
Stop watching benchmarks. Start watching integrations.
