What I learned this week

TL;DR

• Businesses are shifting from selling tools and services to guaranteeing measurable outcomes through "Results as a Service" (RaaS) or "Outcome as a Service" (OaaS). This model reduces complexity and risk for customers by delivering specific results rather than just capabilities. AI, particularly through adaptive AI agents, plays a pivotal role by automating tasks, analyzing data, and ensuring consistent outcomes at scale. » READ MORE

• It took me 6-8 hours to get a working iOS application to track stock/crypto trade using Cursor AI. I did write on AI programming assistant before, but this is really mind-blowing. I have zero experience in iOS programming and throughout the whole thing I have not typed a single line of code. Is it the best application either? Probably not. Is the code super high quality…can’t really judge but I’m sure an experience iOS dev would find a lot to improve…but in the end this is just a very good illustration of my point of last week: be curious and try to adopt those new tool…or someone else will 😉 

• OpenAI pulled a great marketing move with their “12 days of OpenAI” basically staying in the news continuously for more than 2 weeks…brilliant strategy! So this week we got:
