Ashish Kothari says AI has made it possible for anyone to build and launch products without formal education or years of prep. But ideas alone won't cut it. You need both technical skills and social-emotional abilities to stay relevant as AI changes everything.

Today, AI has in many ways democratized how much you needed to know and what it took. Any person can sit down and quickly, if they have an idea, they can put it out there, they can build it. Yes. So that's something, you know, I think earlier you had to go to school and you had to find time, but I think these are, I think the barriers have come down. And I think for listeners, you know, if you're not actively building these skills, the tech skills, but also the social emotional skills. Absolutely. I think we get left behind.
