When Prediction Becomes Cheap, Everything Changes
In 2013, Monsanto paid $1.1 billion for a company most people had never heard of. The Climate Corporation wasn't developing miracle seeds or new pesticides-it was replacing something farmers had relied on for generations: their own judgment. Using AI to analyze weather patterns, soil conditions, and crop data, the company could tell farmers exactly when to plant, when to harvest, and what would happen if they didn't. This wasn't just a helpful tool. It was a fundamental shift in who held the knowledge-and the power. This is the heart of what's happening with AI today. We're living in what might be called "The Between Times"-that awkward period after a technology proves it works but before it actually changes how we live. Think about electricity: Edison's light bulb debuted in 1879, yet only 3% of American homes had electricity twenty years later. It took another two decades to reach 50%. Those forty years weren't about perfecting the technology-they were about rebuilding entire systems around it. AI is following the same pattern, and understanding why reveals something profound about how transformation actually happens.
