April 21, 2026 · 38 min

Show notes

"If you could have a system that could build anything with code, humans can't compete on the same level. That's narrow superintelligence, and we're close."

In this episode of AI Native Dev, Simon Maple sits down with Logan Kilpatrick, who spent years at OpenAI working alongside Sam Altman before moving to Google DeepMind as Group Product Manager.

They get into:

  • There will be 100x more developers in the world because of AI
  • AGI will be a product, not a model
  • The way you used AI tools three months ago is already wrong
  • What's actually changing inside the Gemini team and why it matters for developers building with it today


The developers who win won't be the ones who mastered today's tools. They'll be the ones who never stopped learning the new ones.
