Day 3

“Attention Is All You Need” didn’t just name a neural network architecture — it marked a shift in the entire tech landscape. We’ve entered a new stage where the classic moats like proprietary data, infrastructure, and even distribution are no longer enough. They’ve been eroded, just like every previous generation’s defensible advantages eventually were. What’s left are two things: velocity and attention. The ability to build, ship, and adapt faster than anyone else — and the ability to capture and hold someone’s fleeting interest long enough to matter. In a world where anyone can prototype an AI product over a weekend, speed and focus aren’t just nice to have — they are the moat.
