Drawing from his experience supporting thousands of startups, Seibel explains why traditional office hours remain critical for redirecting founder focus and unlocking transformative insights. He shares compelling examples of how AI is revolutionizing healthcare and financial services by eliminating rote tasks rather than replacing expertise.
