2) Speed is unprecedented
— Fernando Cao (@thefernandocz) May 29, 2025
Companies are reaching $10M ARR in MONTHS.
That's faster than anything Silicon Valley has ever seen.
Proof? Lovable (AI coding tool) hit $10 MILLION in ARR within 2 months.
Forget the old playbook. It takes 60 days to build an 8-figure business. pic.twitter.com/Kcz4UNJMAZ

4) Hunt for inefficient industries

When everyone has the same tech, the only differentiator will be authentic value...
— Fernando Cao (@thefernandocz) May 29, 2025
And human voices will increase in value as they become rarer.
And for businesses that prepare, the next phase of AI will be a gold rush.

All become 10x easier when people notice YOUR brand over everyone else's AI clone.
And competition will be minimal for those who take action early...
