Knowing what to build, knowing when the system is telling you something, knowing when to cut, knowing when the fast path is the wrong path — these were never just “execution.” They were always the harder parts and to pretend they’re solved by AI is questionable, to say the least.

This is glib but no less true for it: “The Faster You Go, the Wronger You Get” and it’s unclear who will be able to internalize this lesson now if they weren’t able to do it previously. While it has become even more important it has in no way become easier.

Competitive advantage is still there and it’s fundamentally the same.
