"AI is absolutely not a headwind—it's a tailwind for us." That's what the CEO just laid out, and honestly, it's the kind of clarity we need to hear more of.

There's been so much noise about whether AI disrupts or elevates. But the takeaway here is pretty straightforward: when you stop fighting the wave and start riding it, everything changes. The businesses treating AI as a constraint are missing the plot. Those positioning it as an accelerator? They're building the future.

The real question isn't whether AI is good or bad anymore. It's whether you're set up to capitalize on it. That mentality shift—from defensive to aggressive—is what separates winners from also-rans in any market cycle. Tech, finance, Web3... doesn't matter where you look.

Headwind or tailwind, it all depends on which side you're on... Those still on the defensive will definitely suffer.

You're not wrong. Companies still resisting AI need to wake up—this is a survival of the fittest.

NGL, this CEO is right. Going with the flow is the way to go. Companies stubbornly resisting AI should have woken up already.

To be honest, I've heard this "go with the flow" argument too many times. The problem is that most companies simply don't have the governance framework to truly capture the benefits of AI. Changing just the mentality is useless; if the incentive mechanisms can't keep up, it's all in vain. Historically, cases like Nokia and Blockbuster are clear examples—they also "embraced change," but their organizations were rigid, and decision-making processes were blocked. So the real watershed isn't whether you believe in AI, but whether you've built a system that allows teams to iterate quickly and decentralize authority. That's what the winners do.
