The moat for specialists is compliance depth, not distribution. Expect the two races to partially re-merge at the top of the market — and diverge hardest in defense and regulated infrastructure, exactly where he points.
Enterprise AI and consumer AI are solving for different objective functions. That divergence is already hardening.
Consumer AI optimizes for:
- Time to value (minutes)
- Breadth of capability (generalist)
- Distribution friction (zero)
- Model performance on benchmarks
- Viral adoption loops
