Just published by Citrini Research — “The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis” 🧠📉

A provocative thought experiment written from the future (June 2028) that explores how AI-driven productivity gains could trigger:

• mass white-collar displacement
• a collapsing consumer economy
• “ghost GDP” — output that never circulates
• deep equity pullbacks and structural risk

Not a prediction but a serious scenario analysis on left-tail macro risk in an AI-dominated landscape. Worth a read if you’re thinking beyond the bull case.

At AI Startup School in San Francisco, Andrew Ng distilled a critical shift for founders: the real leverage in today’s AI era isn’t raw model performance — it’s execution speed and concrete product thinking. He made it clear that AI tooling (from agent-based workflows to code generation assistants) has compressed the prototyping and iteration cycle by an order of magnitude, meaning startups can validate ideas and learn far faster than before. His practical advice — define precise ideas, rapidly prototype using existing models and APIs, and treat AI building blocks like composable LEGO pieces — is exactly the roadmap founders need to turn abstract visions into user-validated products at startup velocity.
