In this episode, Mike and Corey dive into one of the most urgent divides forming in the business world: AI-native startups vs. legacy companies scrambling to retrofit their operations. They explore what it really means to build with AI at the core—not just as a tool, but as a fundamental shift in how problems are defined and solved.
From legal bottlenecks to misaligned incentives, the conversation unpacks the cultural, operational, and strategic barriers that slow-moving companies face. And they don’t just talk theory—they lay out a practical framework for how businesses should be thinking about AI across three critical areas: customer experience, product development, and internal operations.
It’s not about hype. It’s about speed, clarity, and the new battleground for differentiation. Whether you're leading a startup or navigating change inside a large org, this is a sharp look at what’s coming—and who gets left behind.
