Reunited with a bunch of normie friends over the past 5 days. Solid corporate jobs, well-educated. Mostly banking, finance, and tech. Here’s what I found: - Not using AI in their normal workflows, especially at their corporate jobs — most AI tools are blocked and not yet integrated. - Some are curious about crypto, open-minded and reading about it. - Some are extremely against crypto, strong negative feelings. - One uses stablecoins for moving money and receiving salary (wow!). Not yet investing or onchain though. - Some dev friends (10 years of experience, highly qualified) feel threatened by AI and make fun of “AI coders.” Funny enough, some of their biggest pains at their jobs could be solved with AI agents in 1–2 hours instead of the weeks it takes currently. Thoughts: We are at a breaking point (AI / crypto), and the world is behind. If you are here, reading this, you are extremely early and well-positioned. Take advantage of your position. Figure out how.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. I’ve had the exact same experience, which is what initially led me to quit my job. All AI was blocked and laughed at, which seemed ridiculous to me, given how much time and energy it could have saved. I think the crux is that many corporations run on inefficiency, because the people running them don’t want to change the status quo

Yes, plus regulatory, privacy concerns. People still think AI is chat gpt. Haven’t fully experienced the latest tools. AI-native workers will take them by surprise in 1-2 years imo

for sure, which is reasonable on the reg/privacy side. But so many of these tools can be built locally or custom trained on proprietary data 🤔 so much of the reg and privacy concerns would potentially be moot I think closer to 1 year, but I’ve also been too optimistic in the past haha. The issue isn’t one of replacing people, but of helping augment what they’re already doing to do it faster and cut out redundancies

Exactly! 1 person will be capable of executing the output of 10, then 50, then 500. Companies will reduce workforce tremendously. Those capable of using ai and adjusting will get paid extremely well, even for todays standards.
