The Evolution of Internet and AI Waves: What the Past Teaches About Future Success

Guy Gamzu, an investor who’s helped shape some of the biggest names in tech like Fiverr and Moon Active, shares why the AI boom is fundamentally different from the internet bubble of the late '90s - and what startups need to focus on right now to succeed in this unpredictable landscape. In this episode, we explore how the AI market is mirroring early internet days, yet with a critical twist. Guy Gamzu highlights why large language models are only a first step, and why scalability demands hyper-specific, granular solutions. You’ll discover why rapid market valuation swings echo past tech bubbles, and how entrepreneurs can navigate the fickle waters of trust, adoption, and real-world impact. Plus, we dive into practical frameworks: why starting small, proving product-market fit, and confining solutions to narrow use cases are the keys to sustainable growth in AI.

KEYWORDS AI, leadership, philosophy, ethics, innovation, creativity, education, technology, human agency, business strategy SUMMARY This episode dives into how AI is reshaping leadership, ethics, and human creativity. Michael Schrage and the hosts explore why the next decade will force leaders to rethink purpose, originality, and agency in a world increasingly shaped by algorithms.
