"What’s critical in each of these cases is that these are not explicitly productivity improvements to existing employees for existing workflows. Instead, they take markets that were constrained by all the effort, friction, and cost of hiring and working with people, and unlock them. Exactly the type of market that gets overlooked by an incumbent."

One concept I like is that while the raw capacity of something like an LLM is increasing continuously over time, there's a hard threshold at which it crosses from being [not at all useful] to [useful] for a given application. Until we get true human-level AI-generated audio, ElevenLabs is impossible...but the second we do, it's a 10x improvement. Feels like part of the reason it's harder to spot these opportunities in advance.
