The modular deployment of AI and autonomy alongside skilled labor will make complex, bespoke processes operate like an assembly line.
America's first great century was.
Was built on industrial string.
But it's no secret that we've lost a lot of that muscle.
Some of that has been from offshoring, from the financialization of everything in the 80s, leading to the large-scale offshoring of industrial manufacturing in the 90s and 2000s.
Some of it dates back to regulation.
So rules and agencies and processes that were put in place, usually for very good and specific reasons at the time, have built
Up over time into a crust that makes it, you know, very hard to do new things and to build new things in America.
But here we are, and we have to figure out how to reinstill a culture of building in this country.
I'm not just talking about a factory in a literal sense.
Like you have a warehouse with an assembly line.
Where you have some mix of humans and machines, and at the end of the factory line there's a widget that pops out.
I'm really thinking about the principles of an assembly line full stop and how are those principles getting applied to industries that aren't traditionally industries you'd think of when you think of a factory?
So housing, the construction of data centers, the construction of mines, the construction of large-scale energy infrastructure and energy projects.
We're seeing founders try to reduce these problems into kind of a decomposable set of modular.
Parts such that you can apply the principles of an assembly line to society-scale problems.
And AI is a really amazing way to do that because you can understand and map out.
Different complexities in a regulation in a very formulaic and agentic way without having to completely redesign your entire processes from scratch every single time.
How do we take technology and bring the factory out into the world?
We're building data centers at an unprecedented rate today, and we're creating standard IP and standard designs and putting them up in record time.
