The A.I. Business Manifesto · Rich Schefren

The most dangerous hand isn't the worst one. It's the second-best.

The weakest hand is easy. You feel nothing, you fold, you move on. The second-best hand is the one that breaks you.

Your hand

Full house. Aces over kings.

Strong enough to bet everything on. Strong enough to feel certain. It still feels like winning.

What just beat you — Royal flush
Your hand — Full house, aces over kings

Right now, you're holding the second-best hand in your business. It used to be the winning one.
