@levie whose ox get gored.. someone always loses when you win

The main lesson in software is to go after markets that are artificially constrained by bad tech. When you build something far simpler or more integrated than was offered before, you will invariably expand the market size by an order of magnitude.

@levie he cut thousands of jobs, killed the stupid metaverse and has purchased more Apple Vision Pros than anyone else

@levie completely agree, AI is entering its human led phase of development.. for every human in the enterprise there is an AI opportunity

If you talk to any enterprise, they have a near infinite set of needs from AI that can drive huge gains, but we’re in the early days of being able to deliver these cost effectively and at scale. Now’s a time to speed up progress in AI, not slow it down.

@levie no such thing as a horizontal industry, never met a customer who said i operate in the horizontal market.. well said Aaron!

All the enterprise AI startups going after verticals have the right idea. Pick a market, deeply understand the workflows, build simple software to model the workflows, and use AI to augment the human judgment involved. Huge opportunity in 1,000’s of categories.
