AI vs Old-School Work: My Realization That the Future Won’t Wait
A few years ago, my workflow looked like something from a different era. If I needed to research a topic, I opened dozens of tabs. If I needed to analyze something, I did it manually. If I needed ideas, I stared at a blank screen. It felt normal because everyone around me worked the same way. But recently, something changed. AI tools like ChatGPT and GitHub Copilot started appearing everywhere. At first, I treated them like simple tools — useful, but not revolutionary. Then I realized something important. AI isn’t just another productivity tool. It’s a completely new way of working. And the biggest risk today isn’t AI replacing people. It’s people refusing to evolve with AI. The moment I realized work is changing One day while working on a technical problem, I tried something different. In

The end of the browse-and-click era: The roadmap to agentic commerce
The agentic commerce era is here — but how much does it matter? The short answer: enormously, and more so every day. McKinsey has estimated that five years from now, agentic commerce — meaning AI agents acting autonomously on behalf of consumers to search, compare and buy across platforms — could account for $1 trillion in the US business-to-consumer (B2C) retail market, and $3 trillion to $5 trillion globally. At the January conference of the National Retail Federation, participants noted that what was experimental is fast becoming operationalized , and implementations that used to take two to three months are now being done in a few weeks. Common standards and practices are being established, such as the Agentic AI Foundation , as well as tools like the Agentic Commerce Protocol and the
PMI builds commerce engine to glean customer insights
Counterfeit tobacco sales account for as much as 75% of South Africa’s total market. And while Mary Mahuma, CIO for Southern Africa PMI, admits that the challenge facing the business is significant, she finds solutions by tackling the root cause of the issue: customer insights . According to her, other FMCG brands also struggle to clearly understand consumer behavior, how they engage with brands, and what they actually want. This is especially true in rural and informal markets. “One might expect a brand like PMI to try to address these challenges by focusing on big fish,” she says. “But there’s so much value in better targeting our strategies toward understanding the hidden market for tobacco products.” This market, consisting of small, independent convenience or general trade stores, is
Without controls, an AI agent can cost more than an employee
Without proper controls, AI agents can cost more than what outputs are worth according to Jason Calacanis and Chamath Palihapitiya , two IT experts and cohosts of popular podcast, All In podcast . During a recent episode, long-time tech investor Calacanis noted that agent costs quickly rose to $300 a day while using the Claude API at one of his organizations. At the same time, these $100,000-a-year agents were replacing only a fraction of an employee’s work. “When do tokens outpace the salary of the employee?” he asked. “Because you’re about to hit it. I’m about to hit it.” Palihapitiya, CEO at VC firm Social Capital, said his organization sets token budgets for its best developers, but unfettered agent use can get expensive. “If you aggregate it across all people, you can clearly see a tr
