Totally different environment, really, as AI progresses.

Okay, now I wanted to talk about this in the context of a very cool new startup.

What we see all the AI labs developing is autonomous AI, meaning, hey, this is going to dramatically accelerate workflow processing and productivity in business and in your personal life.

But it's really the, you know, you give the AI an assignment and you send it off and it goes and works for hours, maybe even days and comes back with a good solution.

All right.

So last week I talked about the Forrester research for Miro that said that there's an overemphasis in AI on individual productivity.

So individuals in the enterprise using AI to advance their own personal productivity.

Right.

And 75% of leaders in that survey, and this was a survey of about 1,500 business leaders, they felt that current AI tools focused too much on individual productivity rather than team collaboration outcomes.

Kilos and herding coordination.

And further, that collaboration is a big gap in AI deployments.

90% said improving collaboration is critical to achieving their goals, signaling that existing AI deployments are not adequately supporting cross-functional teamwork.

All right.

So a lack of shared collaborative environments in AI is definitely a thing.

Like I'm building my own workstation, fully AI enabled with cloud code and all the attendant configurations, including skills, et cetera.

But I'm not sharing that with anyone and I'm not really interacting with anyone.

So I'm getting a lot of productivity gain.

And that could be true for individual humans inside enterprises.

Right.

But now there's a new, very cool startup that's come about.
