commercialization / work in progress

I work on commercialization.

How companies understand markets, find and create demand, position themselves, sell, learn and grow.

Today, I’m especially interested in how AI changes what is possible across that system.

Questions I’m working on now.

recently changed

The work moves when the evidence moves.

We tried to prove tenant isolation before tenants existed.

The running system exposed a hidden assumption and changed the architecture.

Signal volume became less interesting than signal convergence.

The question shifted from counting events to testing whether independent observations support the same hypothesis.

Model cost changed how we structured the work.

More AI capacity did not automatically produce more useful progress.
