WE’RE FASCINATED BY THE IDEA OF TECHNOLOGY CHANGING EVERYTHING

  • 2000s era Internet was going to change everything
  • GenAI is predicted to change everything

MOST TECHNOLOGY’S SHIFT HAPPEN WITH CONSUMERS FIRST

  • GenAI still can’t validate accuracy (e.g. hallucinations)
  • GenAI is still extremely expensive to create, maintain
  • GenAI still doesn’t have a widely-adopted business model
  • Shadow GenAI groups will emerge in the Enterprise
  • People are still mostly thinking about GenAI as a way to offload things they don’t want to do vs. improving their existing skills
