A business plan in seconds
The Bookstore Era
Starting out, Mark Cuban would sit in a bookstore and read books in the aisles on how to start a business, or a workbook on how to put together a business plan.
Plans in Seconds
Now you tell Claude the idea and what you want to do, and it puts together a business plan and the founding paperwork. What used to be something you didn't have enough time or understanding to do takes seconds, and it's a great equalizer.
Democratized Education
That makes this the most amazing time ever to start a business. The same tool is a democratizer of education, because it gives access to every book, every library, and the equivalent of every professor and expert. The experts don't always get it right either, so the answers aren't always right, and that's where the human comes in.
Why could people read for hours in bookstores?
In the 1990s, chains such as Barnes and Noble and Borders built superstores with armchairs and coffee bars. The layout invited customers to linger, and the stores often stocked more than 100,000 titles.
Why can AI answers still be wrong?
Language models generate the text that is most likely to follow, rather than checking each statement against a source. That can produce confident answers that are false, which researchers call hallucinations. Models also reflect errors and disagreements in the writing they were trained on. Some products add web search so the model can check claims against live sources.
How did earlier tools spread knowledge widely?
Andrew Carnegie paid for more than 2,500 public libraries around the world, roughly 1,700 of them in the United States. Before his grants, most American towns had no free public library. Earlier still, Gutenberg's movable-type press in the 1450s made books cheap enough to circulate beyond monasteries and universities.
