AI deployment / business operations

AI is about to disrupt a lot more industries. I wanna talk about two big news stories that dropped in the last 48 hours and what this means for businesses.

Anyone who's seriously using AI to do work knows that it's already capable of handling most work that can be done on a computer. However, actually deploying it into a real company is incredibly difficult right now.

Well, both Anthropic and OpenAI realize that this is the barrier keeping people from integrating AI into their work. Anthropic just released an updated version of their plugin for financial analysts.

And for the first time, they also released what they're calling a cookbook for Managed Agents. Financial analysts, or anyone hiring a financial analyst, can just download this cookbook, plug it into Cloud, and immediately access sophisticated agents that handle the most common financial work.

Now, it's clear they're starting with finance, cause that's one of the easiest industries to automate. But Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google are making it very clear they plan to do this to every industry...

ngineer model popularized by Palantir. Both Anthropic and OpenAI will deploy their own engineers to work inside these companies.

They'll first identify partners that want to deploy AI in their own company, and then they'll send their engineers to work inside those companies. So instead of paying a very expensive AI consultant to figure out how to deploy AI, they'll have the actual engineers from Anthropic or OpenAI building custom systems inside their company.

And of course, OpenAI and Anthropic's goal is to figure out how to deploy AI into all companies. I think the fact that we saw OpenAI and Anthropic announce these ventures simultaneously speaks to how this was just clearly the next step in figuring out how to automate real work with AI.

There's still a lot we have to figure out about how to best integrate AI into our work. This project is clearly going to accelerate that progress...
