I think what is going to happen in the next two-to-three years is that the productivity applications for the general masses will finally be ready for mainstream use. Currently, I am trying to design better onboarding tools using GenAI to organize and create help guides on the fly for any questions someone may have. It's going to take a lot of hard work and effort and time, but it will happen, that I guarantee. America is just one of those places where I feel stuff like this is what we were brought up to envision and actualize.

She said she could understand the lack of hiring if this were Europe, but not in the US, where economic backdrop is “really good.”
> “What are they doing, why aren’t they hiring more?” she asked.
