Quote of the Show:
“AI is really no different than hiring a new junior-level employee that you're going to delegate to so that you can take on the higher-level work in the business. So everybody that's working at these companies, if they're afraid of AI, it's because they have this scarcity mindset of just holding on to what they've always done. People will not be doing the same work 10 years from now that they've always done. It just won't make any economic sense.” - Chris Ronzio
