Prediction text
A pure AI organization will emerge soon — won't look efficient, will look 'literally alien'. | And I think what'll happen is we'll see a pure AI organization at some point soon, but they won't look efficient. They'll look literally alien and and that's fine. I think I it's one of these where you can't wait for it to happen.
Verbatim quote
And I think what'll happen is we'll see a pure AI organization at some point soon, but they won't look efficient. They'll look literally alien and and that's fine. I think I it's one of these where you can't wait for it to happen.
