The boring places may be your AI gold mine

When many people talk about AI, they want to do something huge and disrupt an entire industry. I recently saw an interview with a team that thought the same way at first. They felt their main business, programming, was too competitive, so they moved into what they thought was a niche area: a tool related to mechanical design.

Sounds smart, right? But after diving in and working for six or seven months, they realized they were feeling around blindly. They did not truly understand what those engineers did all day or what they needed. This is a typical founder-market mismatch. AI is not a magic wand. You cannot conjure flowers out of thin air in a field you do not understand at all.

In the end, they had no choice but to return, battered, to the field they knew best. That company is Cursor, now one of the hottest companies in AI coding.

We keep staring at the glamorous trends, but forget that the old business you understand best may be exactly where AI can help you the most.
