Many startups are focusing on selling tools for AI applications, but the reality is that many potential customers are still figuring out how to effectively use AI, leading to a disconnect between product offerings and actual market needs.

The current tech landscape is ripe for startups because many established companies are unaware of the rapid advancements in AI.

Startups have an opportunity to disrupt existing businesses by leveraging AI technologies that organizations are not yet set up to adopt.

Many companies still lack an understanding of the advancements in AI technology, often repeating outdated beliefs about its limitations, which can hinder innovation.

Many startup founders overlook the potential of vertical AI agents, which are not a new concept but are gaining traction in the market.

We're still at the very beginning of how people understand how to use AI tools in their work, and there are many social opportunities that haven't been fully explored yet.

Startups are adopting AI tools faster than large companies, providing a unique opportunity for hands-on experience and learning.

The perception that AI startups are merely wrappers around foundational models is misleading; many are creating valuable and innovative companies despite the risks of failure.

Despite concerns about AI automation, many startups are successfully integrating AI into workflows, often reducing the need for human oversight as customers become more comfortable with the technology.
