🚨Amazon has issued legal threats to Perplexity over its agentic browsing tool that allegedly scrapes Amazon's site while disguising automated activity as human behavior. This marks the opening shot in what will become a massive battle over who controls web data access as AI agents proliferate.

Typing is the bottleneck nobody wants to admit.

Average typing speed is 40 words per minute. Average speaking speed? 150 words per minute. Yet we're still hunt-and-pecking our way through PRDs, documentation, and planning sessions.

Voice tools like Wisprflow, SuperWhisper, and Monologue are changing this, and the early adopters are lapping everyone else.

You talk through your idea -- out loud, stream of consciousness, while walking the dog or commuting. The AI transcribes it, structures it, and hands you back a formatted document.

I watched someone map out an entire SaaS product in 23 minutes of voice notes. Turned into a PRD that would've taken 3+ hours to type.

The workflow is dead simple: talk, transcribe, refine.

... is mostly social. People feel weird talking to their computer. Offices aren't set up for it. And there's a learning curve to "thinking out loud" coherently.

But once you get past that awkwardness? It's absurdly faster.

The best use cases aren't replacing typing entirely -- it's capturing thoughts that would never get written down because typing friction is too high.

Planning documents. Feature brainstorms. Bug reports. User research notes. All the stuff that lives in someone's head because "I'll write it up later" (which means never).

Voice tools make "later" become "now."

Wisprflow integrates directly into Notion and Google Docs. SuperWhisper runs locally (nothing leaves your device). Monologue specializes in technical jargon and preserves your speaking style instead of over-polishing.

Some teams are doing "voice-first planning" -- entire PRD sessions conducted verbally, AI listening and structuring in real-time.

The limitation is still editing. You'll always need to refine what comes out. But starting from 80% done via voice beats starting from a blank page typing.

What's next: Expect voice interfaces to become standard in AI coding tools. Cursor and Replit are both testing voice commands for code generation. "Build me a login form with email validation" while your hands stay on the keyboard for other work.

BTW: The voice-to-text accuracy on proper nouns and technical terms has gotten scary good. I dictated "Supabase row-level security policy" and it nailed it first try. Two years ago that would've been gibberish.

There is no better time to learn how to use AI to build solutions businesses want. I’m hosting a workshop that will show you, step-by-step, how to build tools and solutions using AI without having to know how to code.

If you’re interested, reply back to this email with the keyword BUILD and we’ll send you more info.

We are disclosing the dates soon. So if you’re interested make it known.

The Recap: Google has unveiled Project Suncatcher, an ambitious moonshot to deploy AI chips on solar-powered satellites orbiting Earth. The project reveals just how desperate the infrastructure bottleneck has become for frontier AI development—when one of the world's largest tech companies seriously considers launching data centers into space, the on-ground limitations are clearly reaching critical mass.

Unpacked:

Bottom line: Project Suncatcher represents a pivotal moment where AI infrastructure needs have outpaced Earth-bound solutions. The question isn't whether this specific moonshot succeeds, but what it tells us about the desperation driving frontier AI labs to explore increasingly extreme options to maintain their competitive edge.
