0 people tracking this creator on ViralBrain
Michael positions himself as a high-conviction builder at the frontier of AI-native engineering, moving beyond mere speculation to demonstrate the practical limits of autonomous coding. His content strategy centers on high-signal proof of work, such as building complex browsers from scratch, while facilitating deep-dive dialogues with industry titans like Patrick Collison and John Schulman. He is notable for his ability to bridge the gap between raw technical experimentation and institutional utility, often highlighting how Cursor scales within elite organizations like Stripe. This creates a compelling intersection of hardcore systems engineering and strategic industry foresight, establishing him as a credible voice on how AI will fundamentally restructure the labor and reliability of software development.

We built a browser with GPT-5.2 in Cursor. It ran uninterrupted for one week. It's 3M+ lines of code across thousands of files. The rendering engine is from-scratch in Rust with HTML parsing, CSS cas…

Writing style breakdown
Professional, concise, technically literate.
Informative and descriptive rather than overtly persuasive.
Understated, almost minimalistic; no fluff or melodrama.
Feels like a founder / researcher speaking to other builders, engineers, and tech-literate professionals.
Calmly confident; the tone assumes the reader understands or is curious about technical depth.
Professional in vocabulary, grammar, and politeness.
Casual in brevity, occasional light exclamation, and subtle informality (e.g., tilde usage, conversational asides).
No slang like “gonna,” “wanna,” etc.
No corporate buzzword overload; language is straightforward and concrete.
Low- to medium-energy; never hyped or salesy.
Excitement is expressed via content (ambitious projects) rather than adjectives.
Emotion is mostly implied through surprising facts (3M+ lines of code, from-scratch engine, etc.).
Rare use of exclamation points, and when used, they emphasize mild incredulity or appreciation rather than hype.
Very strong bias toward concrete detail over abstract superlatives.
Example patterns: listing technologies, components, or workflows instead of vague claims.
When will we be able to…?
Who will be the Gartner / Forrester of AI?
Frequent use of compact appositive descriptions: “a conversation with [Name], [role], on [topics].”
Phrases like “It kind of works!”, “very far from Webkit/Chromium parity,” “we were astonished that…”
Parenthetical clarifications and asides: “(including Stripe!)”, “(bidirectional DM's, calls, shared links)”.
