I've been feeling anxious lately.
Not because of the cryptocurrency market, nor the progress of UXUY (in fact, I'm quite confident in it).
What truly worries me is—AI is reshaping the hierarchy of entrepreneurs, and most people aren't even aware they're being reclassified.
This isn't a "technological revolution," it's a cognitive divide.
Over the past few months, I've become increasingly convinced of a framework:
Phase One: Using AI as a tool.
Improving efficiency, reducing costs, replacing repetitive labor.
This is the easiest, most widespread, and least barrier-free stage.
Everyone can do it, and will only go this far.
Those who remain at this level won't be eliminated by AI,
but will be eliminated by those who know how to use AI.
Phase Two: Using AI as a human.
Let AI participate in reasoning, discussion, review, and decision-making.
Treat it as an intellectual node, not just software.
When you reach this level, you'll find:
The product logic has changed.
The business logic has changed.
The growth logic has also changed.
Because you're no longer starting a business alone,
but rather with "one person + multiple intelligent agents."
This will truly create a gap between people.
The third stage: Treating AI as a user.
This is the final stage.
And almost no one realizes it has already begun.
AI is not just about outputting content, writing code, and generating images.
AI will search, evaluate, recommend, execute, trade, and trigger actions.
It will have a "preference system."
When AI becomes a user,
you're not creating "products for humans,"
but "products for a new species."
This will completely change the boundaries of entrepreneurship.
My anxiety stems from this:
I know very well I can't stay at the first level, but the rope between the second and third levels hasn't been fully straightened by the world.
Most entrepreneurs are still using AI, but not collaborating with AI,
and certainly not building for AI.
And the transition between these three levels will determine the ranking order for the next decade.
AI won't eliminate entrepreneurs;
AI will only eliminate entrepreneurs who stay at the first stage.
So, now it's your turn. Which level do you belong to?
Level 1: Asking questions, searching, and creating diagrams with AI
Level 2: Reviewing, arguing, and making decisions with AI every day
Level 3: Already designing products for AI and writing prompts for AI economics
Reply with the numbers 1 / 2 / 3.
