Balanced views are not sexy enough?
All we hear is extremes, from politics and public discourse to discussions about work and management, all the way to nutrition advice and hobbies.
(It’s not just the algorithms.)

My goal is to give you practical tools to help you accelerate your work immediately.
- Naming the real reason your decision is stalling - it changes everything

- How
CEOs are uniquely prone to AI psychosis because they’re sufficiently distant from the last mile of work that still has to happen to generate most value with AI.
So when they play with AI, they see the happy path results, often not considering the next 10 or 20 things that have to happen to get sustainable results from agents.
“Look I made this awesome product prototype”. Yes but you didn’t have to review the code before it went into production and fix a bunch of issues.
“Look I generated a contract”. Yes but you didn’t verify all the terms before it goes out to the counterparty and didn’t have to wire up all the past contracts to work with.
The best thing you can do as a CEO is to use AI a *ton* to figure out the real implications of agents in the enterprise, and come out the other side with an appreciation for both the upside and the real work that goes into them.

🧵
80 years ago today, newspapers in Europe carried news of the unexpected death of a very important man, in a hotel miles from the nearest city.
A man who, said some, was helping the Allies win the war.
But there was a twist to the tale. The man in question wasn't actually dead
And the Bretton Woods system was born.
There were rules abt the flow of capital & the way currencies would be pegged to each other.
It lasted only a few decades, but those decades were the most stable, least inflationary & least plagued by recessions or crises in modern history
The pandemic showed that over-optimised just-in-time was too fragile and it was critical to build in slack and and alternatives to build resilience into supply chains.
The same is true for all kinds of systems we rely on in our daily lives today.
