Last summer, @alex_hilleary , Brooks Sime, and I started chatting with culture-driven People Ops leaders. After a year of listening, we’re convinced these companies will lead the future of work. So we're building Gather to support and empower them: teamgather.co

@scottbelsky I unknowingly fulfilled this in the first days of 2025 using @ValDotTown to build a super basic alternative to the @1000HoursOutsid app in 1 hour. I was extremely surprised that this was as easy as it was with AI.

(2) DIY software will replace certain apps for consumers AND the enterprise. There has been much discussion of AI code reviews, GitHub co-pilot, and no-code app builders for the enterprise, but what are the implications of agent-assisted software development for consumers? Quick apps for your home or family were too hard to build until now. I think we’ll see some pretty remarkable and super niche software applications emerge in 2025, by and for consumers. And in the enterprise, the cost calculation of building your own internal tools will start to merit AI-made homegrown solutions to workflows and enterprise functions (and increasingly agents will replace these functions) as opposed to the usual “find a SaaS product to solve every need.”

quick thoughts on things we may see in 2025… (1) A new wave of investigative journalists will break news via betting markets. We learned in the election that betting markets are, in most cases, more accurate than professional polling and news reports of voting trends. While there seems to be no disincentive for spreading false information these days on social media, people act differently when money is on the line. The general population may benefit from bottom-line-driven fact checking and the use of betting markets to suss out the truth of what is really happening. I think we’ll see new types of tech-enabled betting markets AND a new cohort of investigative journalists and researchers become wealthy news sleuths by sourcing proprietary insights and breaking the news via betting markets as opposed to mainstream news outlets that are funded via advertising/clicks.

Just listened to @jennie_romer's @cirtbook — a really solid breakdown what we should be recycling. Seemingly most of the guidelines are driven by 2 factors: 1. MRF processing capability 2. Output product value which is all driven by...the original source material.
