I think it’s because we don’t have a new kind of collaboration unit for the AI era.
The power of a team HAS TO BE GREATER THAN the power of an individual. Doh. Like it’s not even a question.
There’s a phenomenon where talented individuals can achieve 10x their potential thanks to AI when working on their own thing
But when the same individual is put into a large organization, they at most increase their potential by 20% (and sometimes it’s even decreased)
This is why I’m seeing more and more talented people leave large companies. (The only exceptions are probably top AI labs like OpenAI/Anthropic)
