Slides argue that code generation, generalized intelligence and tool execution are commoditizing; the opportunity lies in "stateful specialized" domains — domain mastery, outcome evaluation and trajectory evaluation. Target verticals shown include coding (Cursor, Cognition), legal (Harvey), finance (ROGO), insurance claims (Tractable) and security (depthfirst, Exabytes).
