  The sales page has 3 jobs:
  
  - Highlight a PROBLEM the potential buyer has, or an OUTCOME they want
  - Prove that the product is THE solution
  - Address and overcome any objections

  Little-understood curiosity of @awscloud bill consulting: saving money is secondary. Much more often it's about validating that the current spend is reasonable, engineering has done what they can / should, and providing justification for the CFO to get the hell off their backs.

  "young people can't buy homes because they'd rather buy big fancy TVs"
  
  I am begging older generations to understand that televisions have gone from "a thing that costs 4 months' salary" to "a thing you get for free when your roommate moves and can't be bothered to take it"

  People argue that AI can’t replace knowledge work because it won’t be 100% accurate.
  
  I’m reminded of Pat Helland’s sharing at Amazon they realized they didn’t need the reliability of SQL databases because human error shipping goods was higher. And in either case, you refund.

  I'm amused that Google announced Bard (which is not yet available), and the internet's response was to go back and forth between "congratulations on 'having been working on this for years and still being late to market'" and taking bets until how long it is until it gets whacked.

  Lots to think about when it comes to AI/ChatGPT for lawyers but one thing that keeps popping into my mind is the importance of "authority."
  
  Many things will become easier but sources of authority (when ChatGPT can just make it up) will become more important than ever.
