Execution with AI
One of the fascinating aspects of language is the myriad ways to convey the same message. Different audiences require tailored messaging that resonates specifically with them. Today, the tech industry emphasizes that execution with AI is the future. However, let’s step back and consider a simple formula:
- Value = Idea x Execution
Where:
- Value is your desired output.
- Idea is what will lead to that desired output.
- Execution is how you bring your idea to life.
From this formula, here are a few key takeaways:
- A good idea multiplied by good execution drives significant value.
- Poor execution combined with a bad idea generates low value.
- Bad execution can hinder good ideas, leading to deferred value.
- A bad idea can stress good execution, delivering marginal value through brute force.
It’s straightforward to identify when you’re at either end of the spectrum—either both good or both bad. The challenge is determining where you fall between these extremes, especially when neither the idea nor the execution is outright poor but rather not good enough.
What If We Can Improve Execution with AI?
Consider Instagram: thirteen people executed a brilliant idea exceptionally well, creating a $1 billion company. Now, there’s speculation about when the first 1-person billion-dollar company will emerge. With executable technology or AI, this could become a reality. AI might even lead to the creation of zero-person companies, where AI autonomously incorporates itself. Therefore, the critical task then becomes finding a good idea and leveraging AI for execution to deliver value.
This leap doesn’t seem far-fetched. So, where are you investing your time? Are you focusing on generating good ideas or getting better at executing with AI?
