David doesn’t need a slingshot when he’s got GPT
We don’t get many windows like this.
Maybe once a decade, the ground shifts under everyone’s feet.
A rare moment where speed beats size and legacy brands stumble. Where market share is less about resources and more about vision and courage.
I realized we’re in that window now.
But it’s not going to stay open for long. It never does.
These billion-dollar incumbents are still “integrating AI” the same way Blockbuster once “experimented” with streaming. Cautiously, slowly, and with all the urgency of a company that hasn’t looked up in 10 years.
They’re tangled in approval loops and legacy software.
You’re not.
This isn’t another “tech wave” or a random AI trend cycle.
This is a paradigm shift, like the dawn of the internet or the rise of the smartphone. And in paradigm shifts, fast movers win big.
Think back.
It wasn’t Microsoft that built Instagram.
