Eric Seufert believes that AI investment will shift the economic constraint from "production" to "distribution." As AI dramatically increases content creation, the real bottleneck will become how to distribute that content effectively.
He further notes that this will make advertising platforms, digital ads, and recommendation systems more important. It will also make business and the overall economy more efficient, thereby catalyzing more diverse product development.
