Don’t Call the Plumber
The toilet wouldn’t flush.
It was working just the day before.
The old me would have called the plumber, but instead, I took a picture and asked AI for help.
AI shared that the tank was fine.
It instructed me to go behind the tank and twist the shutoff valve.
Turns out, a $20 subscription saved me a $150 house call.
But it’s not just the bathroom, it’s the office, too.
A corporate lawyer friend shared a similar scenario.
He doesn’t farm out most of his contract work anymore despite not having the expertise.
He uses AI to get 90% of the work done.
The specialist makes some finishing touches.
The last 10% is where the value is.
It’s because people aren’t flushing money down the toilet anymore.
