AI in 2025

When it comes to AI, we need to aim higher than the question: “What if you could press a button to generate an essay?” AI can produce infinite amounts of content; quantity is its game. Quality, intention, taste, originality, vision—that’s where we come in.

I am seeing in real time people who have no idea how to pull their feelings out of them...and to have a tool help them connect these hard-to-see dots in their life and perhaps even make sense of some of their madness.

You know, so many of us in tech, we tend to see the world through the lens of technological determinism, where we believe the course of history will play out according to what is technologically possible.
