You’re Underestimating AI. Almost Everyone Is.

Let’s get real for a second.

Most people still think AI is some cool new tool—like getting a smartphone for the first time, or switching to HD TV. Impressive? Sure. Useful? Definitely. But slow and steady. Predictable. Manageable.

That’s not what’s happening here.

AI isn’t a “new tech wave.” It’s a tsunami. And the crazy part? It’s still way out on the horizon for most people. They’re sipping their coffee, scrolling their feeds, going to work… unaware that something absolutely massive is coming.

And when I say “massive,” I mean: go to bed → wake up → the world has changed.


Let Me Paint the Picture

In most tech revolutions—electricity, phones, the internet—there was a ramp-up. Decades of infrastructure, slow adoption, gradual social change. We had time.

AI is different.

Yes, there’s a visible ramp right now. Tools are getting smarter. Assistants are getting better. Businesses are starting to automate. But after we hit AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)—and we’re very close—there’s no ramp.

It’ll look more like this:

  • Monday: AI writes your emails.

  • Tuesday: AI does your job.

  • Wednesday: AI builds new jobs and trains itself to do them.

  • Thursday: New inventions drop every 12 hours.

  • Friday: You can’t keep up. No one can.

We’re talking about compounding intelligence that never sleeps, never stops, and iterates thousands of times faster than human teams.


Why You Should Care (Like, Now)

If you’re a business owner, executive, investor, creative—frankly, anyone who leads or builds things—this isn’t just something to “keep an eye on.”

It’s something to act on now.

Waiting to see how it plays out? That’s the same as standing on a train track and squinting at the horizon. Just because you can’t see the train yet doesn’t mean it’s not coming.

By the time everyone’s talking about AGI, it’ll already be reshaping everything:

  • Labor markets

  • Company valuations

  • Product lifecycles

  • IP and ownership

  • What it even means to have a competitive advantage


I’ve Helped Companies Prepare—You Can Too

The companies I’ve worked with didn’t just “adopt AI”—they reimagined how they operate.
They moved fast, they made bold choices, and now they’re ahead.

This is what I do. I help teams think clearly, act decisively, and make AI work for them before it overwhelms them.

It’s not about fear. It’s about clarity, timing, and execution.


Final Thought

If you’re not already adapting, you’re already behind. But there’s still time to move—if you’re smart about it.

Reach out. Let’s talk. I’ll help you navigate what’s coming—before you wake up to find everything has already changed.
