Main Idea

AI's "Time Dividend" Is Here—Now What? Michael Moe nailed it: AI doesn't just automate work, it manufactures time. Think about that—time is our most precious resource, and AI just cracked the code to give us more of it. The implications? Massive. AI is now the ultimate productivity engine. Virtual assistants run 24/7. Learning happens in real time. Bots handle the mundane so humans can focus on the meaningful. This isn't man vs. machine—it's man with machine. A multiplier effect. Moe calls this the "Time Dividend": when you eliminate friction, innovation accelerates. Companies that harness this become purpose-driven rockets, not spreadsheets with logos. And growth isn't just about hustle anymore—it's about leverage.

Here’s the play:

Start looking at your work through this lens—"Where can AI buy back time?" Then reinvest that time into creative, strategic, and high-leverage work. Let AI handle the rest.

PS!

My AI clock is ticking. Reminder: massive AI announcement coming early July. Targeting July 9th! Stay tuned.
