You know, on the weekend, he's building AI agents to solve problems in my life.
I need those two kinds of thinking, which is highly proficient agent maxing young kids, or they don't necessarily need to be young, but like really lean in high curiosity.
That's creating a force multiplier in my business.
And then I need deep expertise.
Now, everything else...
Outside of, there is another one I've thought of, another group, is like people with extremely great IRL people skills.
Because we do meet people in real life.
We greet you when you arrive here.
When we go for lunch with big clients that we have, whether it's Apple or LinkedIn or whoever it might be, we need to schmooze.
And we have teams who are in person in the office.
So we do a lot of stuff IRL.
And increasingly we're building communities, even for this show, we're doing community events all around the world.
So we need people that are good at that as well.
IRL, bringing people together in real life and organizing stuff.
Those are the three groups of people that I'm like, you know, irreplaceable right now.
If things carry on at the current rate of trajectory, one could assert that even those roles would experience pressure.
If you just imagine, like people think of things either statically or linearly or exponentially.
If you imagine an exponential rate of improvement, which is kind of what I've seen, even like a 10% compounding rate of improvement, at some point...
At some point, I think what remains is actually the IRL irreplaceably human stuff, human to human.
Our Maslowian needs of being in person like we are now aren't going to change.
