In November, Williams was using Cursor 8 hours a day. When he came back from paternity leave in January, he hadn't opened it once. Nova's CTO didn't change his role. The tools changed everything underneath it. The developer who used to optimize every line of code now directs agents, reviews architecture and thinks in tasks of a thousand lines at a time. The bottleneck is no longer writing code. It's reviewing it fast enough to keep up. In this episode of Signal, Williams, Andrea and Ramón talk about what's actually happening inside tech teams right now. Why Claude Code replaced Cursor almost overnight for early adopters. Why companies doing engineering layoffs are misreading the AI shift. And why the CTO role today is less about building and more about enabling the rest of the organization to build safely. Plus the week's news: Cursor hits $2B ARR while its best users cancel, Oracle lays off 30,000 to fund AI infrastructure, and SaaS valuations at a four-year low.
