TLDR

One post argues that 20 years of building apps around deterministic, predictable results have left many seasoned software executives unprepared for products that create value through probabilistic AI results. The author predicts a significant advantage for young people who adopt that mindset from the outset, comparing it to their advantage in thinking about social products in 2010.

@nikitabierThere are so many seasoned software executives who are completely out of their element with the types of products that will breakout in the next few years. Over the last 20 years, their brains were wired to build apps that deliver value by outputting deterministic results, but AI produces value from probabilistic results. This is such a different way to approach how something should work. Young people who are thinking in this way from the outset will be at a significant advantage -- in the same way they were advantaged when thinking about how products could be social in 2010.
