  • Sahil Lavingia is the founder and CEO of Gumroad, where AI agents are already writing 41% of all code commits, and he’s targeting 80% by year’s end. Sahil demonstrates how this approach allows him to transform what would typically be two-week projects into two-hour implementations—a 40x productivity increase.

    What you’ll learn:

    The exact AI workflow Sahil uses to build features 40x faster—from prototyping in v0 to implementation with DevinHow Gumroad incentivizes AI adoption across the organization with $33,000 bounties for engineers who outperform the CEOHow to use component libraries like shadcn/ui for effective AI developmentHow AI is shifting engineering roles toward architecture and tech-debt removal while enabling designers and PMs to ship features directlyWhy spending more time on UX iteration becomes possible (and necessary) when implementation costs drop dramaticallyWhich organizational functions will be transformed by AI next
