Random thought I can't shake:
"Speed is the new moat" — okay, but moats don't stay moats forever. They never have.
And AI just gave everyone speed at the same time, so… that race already feels over before it started?
The two things I keep coming back to that actually resist copying:
Trust takes years to build, can't be automated. Taste comes from reps and obsession, can't be faked
So weirdly, the best move right now might be to slow down. Not forever. But just not racing on the thing everyone else is racing on.
Invest in the slow stuff while it's unfashionable. Speed you can always buy back. Trust you can't.
