Founders in the past are like Columbus in the 1400s.
They start the journey with the state-of-the-art technologies with a vision of what that voyage could take them within the next few years.
Founders in today’s AI world are a different version of Columbus: they set sail with wooden ships, but knowing that in a few months the fleet would upgrade to steam engines, and later into gas powered cruise ships. In the last leg of the venture, they would be captaining a nuclear carrier with a crew of jet planes surveying the destinations.
That’s what today’s founders would look like.
State-of-the-art technology is what you start with; but expect that you’d soon be propelled by forces you didn’t have a year ago. At the same time, you’d surely need to swap the engine while you fly. The execution required is on a whole new level, so is the outcome.
Founders, imagine you’re Columbus with that vision.
