PLUS: An exciting sneak peek of the upcoming VISIONS Summit in LA!

Stealthily Building an Institution

Key takeaways:

  • VISIONS Summit LA is October 10, and your first look at our speaker lineup is finally here.
  • This year’s All-In Summit explored AI’s expanding role in commerce – and our day-to-day lives.
  • {00:22:21} - “Once the hype cycle leaves a conversation, that's when the quiet building begins.” - Phillip
  • {00:36:36} - “Digital security is probably the biggest concern, and all of the benefits of a lot of the tech that's being released right now could just be completely washed out until there's a way through with security.” - Brian
  • {00:45:57} - “Marc Benioff, Salesforce CEO, says their AI models are going to be at PhD level reasoning eventually…meaning the model can now pretend to be a human. And my response to that was, will my AI agents also incorrectly tag deals, fake follow ups, forget to set their out of office, argue over deal attribution, and insist that a deal is "close," and "We will definitely close by end of quarter," only to kick it out to fiscal '25 on the last day of Q3? …Because that's how they've been trained, and that's the data they've been trained on.” - Phillip
  • {01:18:16} - “[When] we're building abstraction…the intelligence layer of the world that we're building currently, an agent for Phillip would understand all of that stuff and imbue all of my interactions with every system as being purpose-built for me. I bring my personhood to it. It's not being personalized to me. It's the other way around.” - Phillip
  • {01:22:53} - “The whole craze around NFTs was a thirst for a connection to a verified world where digital and physical are tied together through something that is easily authenticatable. That's going to extend to all aspects of our lives, including our bodies.” - Brian
