A decade in the making, AI is suddenly everything, everywhere, all at once. In this article I outline three major themes emerging in the current environment. 1. Industrialization. We have officially entered the industrialization era of AI. With the most complex technical foundation already having been laid, success is no longer about the quality of your code, but rather the quality of your prompts. Any person with the right idea, the right focus, and the right prompts, can now solve any problem, in any industry, regardless of their background, socioeconomic status or geography. The floodgates for innovation have officially been opened. 2. Business disruption. Big missions no longer require big teams, big infrastructure, or big budgets. In fact, in the age of abundance, these things are detractors from the mission. Regime change is underway and small, nimble, multi-disciplinary teams who leverage big data and generalized AI tools in a highly specialized way should not be underestimated or undervalued. Size is no longer an advantage, it’s an Achilles heel. 3. People disruption. AI has reached a point where it can now scale humans. The net effect of this is a devaluing of humans without AI, and a devaluing of AI without humans. The two can no longer be treated as mutually exclusive. Humans who fully embrace AI with intention and purpose will win, and they will win big. (The humans who do this most effectively within this decade will be the winners for the next century.)
