Stop waiting for perfect AI

Meanwhile, small teams are shipping products that would have required 100-person companies two years ago. The gap between the AGI debaters and the builders (those who are developing AGI systems) isn't philosophical-it's economic. While everyone waits for perfect AI, builders are dominating markets with today's "broken" tools, those that are functioning, albeit with some quirks, that will be worked out as the technology evolves. They aren't betting on future breakthroughs, they're betting on momentum.

Architecture in a Flow of AI-Augmented Change

Three years into the AI revolution, enterprises are grappling with an interesting paradox. Despite racing to adopt AI, most organizations remain trapped in pilot purgatory. The disconnect isn't technological; it's organizational and cultural. AI is a force multiplier. In organizations with clear domain ownership, AI augments the organization within well-defined boundaries, enabling semi-autonomous decisions safely. If your team is organized and works well together, AI acts as a turbo-boost, propelling projects to completion. The same is true in reverse for the more traditional bureaucratic "dysfunctional" organizations; AI will amplify the dysfunction.

The annual trends increasingly centered on how we cope with change rather than the change itself. Last year my trend was "The Coming Realignment."

Is AI Making Us Boring?

Boring people don't listen. They tell their own stories, over and over, and never make any attempt to engage in our story, our lives. And so we avoid them. AI, on the other hand, is a superb listener. So much so that people, particularly teens, are turning to chatbots for companionship. But in doing so, do we run the risk of all becoming the same kind of person, wanting the same kinds of friendships, with the same kinds of interactions? In a word, boring.
