312. How competitive advantage changed in the age of AI

If building products isn't your competitive advantage anymore, then what is?

Listen to this episode to find out.

AI means that everyone can now build (and everyone can copy).

So to succeed today, you need something un-copyable.

Listen to this episode to learn:

Why speed to build is now the entry ticket, not the prize
What genuinely cannot be copied with AI — and why that is where your real advantage lives
Real examples of companies that won not because of their technology, but because of what they had that nobody else could replicate
What this means if you are a founder with none of those assets yet
Why large organisations have the most uncopyable advantages — and why they are the slowest to use them

This episode is for you if:

You are building a product and want to understand what will actually protect it
You are a corporate leader trying to figure out where your real innovation opportunity lies
You are a founder who needs to think beyond the product itself
