AI Impact
AI Resistant
AI can help entrepreneurs build products faster, automate operations, analyze markets, and improve decision-making, but it cannot replace human creativity, leadership, vision, resilience, or the ability to identify unmet customer needs. As technology lowers the barriers to starting a business, entrepreneurship is expected to become more accessible and more valuable than ever.
