The Twenty Minute VC (20VC): Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch

NOTE

Master Tools, Not Just Sell Them

Analogies in AI often mislead, particularly the idea that selling infrastructure equates to successful technology adoption. True value lies in understanding and utilizing new technologies effectively within organizations. Historical examples, like the steam engine, demonstrate that skilled artisans who adapt and integrate technology into workflows create real impact, not just the invention itself. The gap in knowledge around practical applications of AI tools like LLMs highlights a lack of foundational resources for users. The obsession with superintelligence in tech circles diverts attention from essential implementations, as the focus on scaling can overlook the critical need for human ingenuity in leveraging AI's capabilities effectively.
