i heard this quote, someone said adoption and utilization of ai on an individual scale is worthless. it leads to negligible productivity gains.
thinking about it: adopting anything on an individual scale as a founder is pretty useless. discounts, ai tools, whatever. as a founder, if you stop focusing there and start focusing on your business, the optimization of your services, the optimization of the people you hire, the optimization of your systems and procedures, that leads to a much better productivity gain.
literally don't even download the discount app. it genuinely doesn't matter, on an individual scale of course. start focusing on where you can optimize as a business. you won't even realize you are missing something once you start adopting as a business.
this is the exact thesis keep pivoting runs on. one person using ai saves an hour. a business rebuilt around agents ships 54 websites. same technology, different altitude.
