David Perell (speaker) frames AI not as a mere assistant but as a "thought partner" that amplifies creative ideation (one+one→11). He offers a high-level framework: AI brings value by (1) boosting people’s productivity, (2) improving operational efficiency, and (3) enhancing product/service value for customers. He recommends starting by putting AI into employees' hands—especially leaders—because leader speed sets team speed.

Not an assistant. It's a thought partner. And kind of like if you've ever stood at a whiteboard with a thought partner, you shared an idea and they went, yeah, and what about this? And all of a sudden one plus one was equaling 11. That's what happened with AI and that's what happened in the room when people learned how to use it as a thought partner. So at a high level, there's really only three ways AI can bring value to your company. Put it in the hands of your people to make it more productive, weave it into your operations to make it more efficient, or weave it into your products or services to make them more valuable customers. The place to start is putting it in the hands of your people. And the number one person that should start is the leader because speed of the leader, speed of the pack. The number one way that they can use it is as a thought partner.
