AI unleashes your potential in proportion to both your spikes but also your valleys.

· Bits and Bobs 7/6/26
  • AI unleashes your potential in proportion to both your spikes but also your valleys.
    • Your spikes are where you have access to greatness.
    • Your valleys are the intellectual gaps that hold you back.
    • Previously, our spikes were the greatness we could reach, but we were fundamentally held back to the level of our valleys.
    • But now, LLMs can fill in any of our intellectual valleys with 90th percentile skill.
    • If you didn't have many spikes, it doesn't do that much for you; just brings you up to the same 90th percentile everyone else can now access.
    • Previously, your valleys held you back.
    • Now they don't.
    • The people who are most turbo-charged by AI are the people who have great spikes but also very deep valleys.
