Each year in AI feels like ten years in the real world. That’s why, in this issue, I’m trying to cut through the noise for you.
I’ve been in this industry for almost a decade, and I’ve seen it evolve.
This will give you the illusion that AI can jump all the stages of “an ecosystem development cycle.”
But as I’ve explained in The AI Convergence, that’s not the case!
How fast will the entire AI ecosystem develop?
Like any other tech cycle, AI will need a complete infrastructural, commercial, and business model change, requiring 30 years for full maturation.
The "AI Convergence Thesis" posits that AI is not just another industry or technology but a transformative force reshaping the entire market landscape.
AI acts as a catalyst across three distinct phases, each expanding and redefining markets in new ways: enhancing existing Internet-native industries, enabling developing technologies to become viable, and forming the foundation for future, uncharted industries.
Each phase has its timeline and distinct impact on market dynamics, pushing AI beyond conventional uses to become an integral, multi-layered component of a digitally amplified "Web²."
This convergence could ultimately drive a redefined, AI-powered economy with significant and lasting growth potential across sectors.
