Good points — but this still feels like we're framing AI as “going faster” and “pruning better.”

That’s just upgrading the scissors.

Speed isn’t the point.

Delivering crap 10x faster is still delivering crap — because of the end of the day it's still crap.

We’ve spent a decade hyping "10x PMs" and "10x outputs," and all it proved is that you can scale waste and dysfunction just as easily as you can scale impact.

Moreover, for the past 2 years, I've been showing how Generative AI — and soon agentic systems — aren’t just about turbo-charging output.

They’re about synthesizing, simulating, reframing, and validating before an MVP even exists. Think pretotype (No, that is not a typo).

TL;DR: It’s not about faster boats or stronger oars.

It’s about picking the right damn river —

and if needed, questioning if the river’s even the right way to move.

AI doesn’t just help ship faster.

It helps pick better markets to ship to — or better problems to solve.
