The biggest problem that I'm seeing right now is that people are just not thinking big enough.
It would take eight hours of reading per day for about 36 years to read what happened in one month.
Why can't we just build the next Google?
The work itself can be performed by these AI agents, but the ideas, the tastes, the reasons behind what we're doing, that is still what we have to communicate.
With AI you can outsource your work, but you can't outsource your understanding.
Yeah, great questions, and it's great that you separated the AI-native business versus the existing business, too, because I think there's differences.
So real quick back story is we started in like 2022 working with these ideas that were not yet possible, and then GPT-4 comes out, and suddenly these ideas were possible.
I feel lucky in a way that we already knew some of the things we wanted to build and AI made those things possible for us.
But yeah, I've been working on these early AI agent products and things and experimenting and trying these ideas.
We released the first autonomous AI coach with Heights AI Coach and my software Heights platform back in 2023.
But AI has changed so much since then.
And so where we're at now is kind of like the future is here, but it's just not evenly distributed.
And what I mean by that is we have reached a point with the models that have come out between the very end of last year and right now that they are just so much more capable than they were a year or so ago.
And the issue is that there are some people who are massively taking advantage of that and are getting so much value from these models.
And there's others who feel like, oh, this is the same chat GPT or whatever that I was using about a year ago.
And they kind of don't realize the differences or what's available to them.
And so...
I would say for the AI native business, I think those kind of founders and creators are kind of figuring this thing out already.
Whereas the existing businesses, I think they have some things to do about
how they... I don't think this is about how do I fire half of my team or something like that.
