Friday Links: Dead internet, 69 AI agents, and finishing books
20 Mar 2026 #mondaylinksHey there.
Here are 4 links I thought were worth sharing this week:
#1. The internet is dead. It doesn’t seem to be a theory anymore (2min). Reddit, LinkedIn, GitHub…AI-generated slop is everywhere. Even bots interviewing bots.
#2. Every week, there’s a new AI tool, model, or prediction. But you don’t have to feel like you’re missing the whole AI train. If you’re not running 69 agents, you’re not behind (3min).
#3. AI shines at speed. We can crank out code faster than ever. But more code means more reviews. Every layer of review makes coding 10x slower (10min).
#4. When was the last time you finished a book? I’m replacing social media with books. But with plenty of distractions, it seems nobody finishes books anymore (14min). That’s a challenge for authors and educators.
And in case you missed it, I wrote on my blog about how we’re helping AI replace us (1min) and the most painful career lesson my best job taught me (3min).
(Bzzz…Radio voice) This email was brought to you by… 10 Surprisingly Simple Ideas That Changed My Life And Could Change Yours Too. If you’ve wondered how to actually change your life, this book shares 10 small daily ideas for big change.
See you next time.
