Building a demo and building a v one becomes really, really trivial, but the real value in these things isn't going deep. The real value is understanding where the nuances of the product and where kind of the nooks and crevices of what makes it truly exceptional are.

Explains a key business insight about AI development - demos are easy but depth is hard. The contrast between 'trivial' demos and 'nooks and crevices' of excellence provides actionable insight for builders and investors.

Consequences

You can imagine a world where, hey. Like, you just chat with a thing and the thing does it for you, and you don't really care what that software looks like on the back end. And then that opens up a really interesting playing field for, again, startups and incumbents to kinda reinvent themselves and then capture a broader opportunity.

Paints a vivid picture of the future of software interaction - conversational interfaces abstracting away complexity. The downstream implications for both startups and incumbents make this a compelling business insight that's easy to visualize.
