What if the fastest route to real AI value isn’t training a new model—but learning how to use the ones we already have, better? We sit down with author and professor John K. Thompson to chart a clear path from AI’s roots to practical wins you can ship this quarter, while keeping an honest eye on what stands between today’s LLMs and true AGI.
