At the pace AI moves, is selling an AI product just selling yesterday’s tech? I dropped that question into a community thread this week, and it’s still rattling around my head. Those of us in the field sprint just to keep up, and the ground shifts under anything sitting on top of it. By the time a product is built, tested, polished, and shipped, the layer beneath it has moved twice.
