AI: The Ultimate Weapon for Small Teams to Outmaneuver Giants | Scott Levy

If you look at the most highly effective teams, the most high-performing teams, I think you're hard-pressed to find teams that are more effective than U.S. Special Forces. Most highly trained, highly resourced. It's amazing. But the reason they exist is because the U.S. military realized that a large organization, no matter how well run, can't do certain things efficiently. And so small— these small teams exist to go into really challenging situations. So there's a lot of agility you get if you're a well-run small team. If you've been a smaller company and you're trying to compete with a larger company, you could manufacture a few advantages. But now with AI, I haven't even looked at how much we've accelerated our ability to deliver things. But you can really lean in and do a lot for the people who really dive in and find ways to leverage it, can go so much faster that By the time the larger companies, which tend to be slower to change, get it, they're either going to have to acquire or they'll be obsoleted. You have a few outliers like Apple. They make innovation their business. But a hungry young company that's well-equipped, that's using the right tools, can really outmaneuver some of those bigger boats, so to speak.
