And then boom, you just, you know, shrink that process by a couple weeks into 10, 20, 30 minutes.

And so imagine that across engineering, product development, marketing, you know, going in and coming up with the sales plan for a customer.

What would happen if many parts of your business, you could start to do things in an hour or two hours that would have otherwise, you know, taken a week?

And what is that?

So there is this notion of... Well, and to that on the lumber layer policy, like the Kanban board might go off on a completely new direction as a result of this.

I like as an example, I have personally and this is like to the chagrin of my my colleagues.

I have lit up more projects internally because of my access to AI, because what I do is I go experiment on some idea.

Then I then get convinced is much easier to go do now because I kind of let me start to do the experiment on it.

And then now all of a sudden I've lit up a project that now people are working on.

And that wasn't in their Kanban board a week ago.

Right, no, 100%.

I literally, so we have this project that we're doing right now, we're on the tail end, where basically I shaved about three days to a week off of the initial brainstorm process that would have taken.

And I did that in a couple minutes with AI.

Then I rallied the team around it because the AI did the upfront part and it sort of showed what it might look like as a result.

We still had another three weeks of work to go make it happen.

I shaved off a week at the front end, but by shaving off the front end, I lowered the barrier to us sort of realizing what would be possible.

But then I added three weeks of work to everybody else that wasn't on their plate.

So AI is going to do that a lot more than we realize because what's going to happen is it's going to expand the aperture of now all the things we can go work on.

I think embedded in there is an interesting kind of point about we will see stats of, okay, individual productivity goes up 10, 20, 30% with AI.

But like clearly at this stage in 2025, organization wide productivity is not 25 or 30% higher or already the economy would already be, you know, completely impacted.
