Got a call from an entrepreneur today.

Got a call from an entrepreneur today. He's retired. Or supposed to be. He was telling me about AI, Claude he's playing with, things he's building, causes he is supporting.
Then he said: "I made a business plan." I stopped him. "Wait, you're retired."
His response got me excited: "AI has changed my life. I have a renewed energy. I am limitless." That wasn't a 24-year-old founder. That was a guy who'd already done his whole career. And he's back building, full of energy, and using AI daily to build tons of ideas to reality.
The energy AI is bringing into the world right now is contagious.
The level of progression and improvements to everyday experiences over the next 10 years is going to be wild.
Can't wait to see 2056
