Yes TJ is very experienced and smart. But no he would not have been able to build this in a few months by himself without AI. In fact he uses Claude so much that he goes over the max subscription and spends thousands of dollars each month on tokens to continue delivering this fast.

AI is a big multiplier for experienced folks like him.
