More AI Knowledge Rarely Leads to Better Decisions
The reflex is almost always the same: learn. More courses. More tools. More frameworks. Unfortunately, practice shows something different.
The reflex is almost always the same: learn.
More courses. More tools. More frameworks.
That’s understandable.
Anyone who wants to understand what’s happening first gathers knowledge.
Unfortunately, practice shows something different.
With each new impulse, complexity increases.
With each new option, uncertainty grows.
The problem isn’t a lack of knowledge.
The problem is a lack of decision-making ability.
Many entrepreneurs are excellently informed.
They know the terms, the possibilities, the promises.
And yet the central question remains open:
Which of these is right for us?
This question cannot be answered through tutorials.
It requires contextualization. And sometimes the courage to consciously not do things.
AI intensifies this issue.
Because it makes decisions faster, cheaper, and more scalable.
This increases the pressure.
Not someday. Now.
More knowledge only helps to a limited extent.
Because knowledge rarely answers the question of what to leave out.
Yet leaving things out is crucial.
Not every possibility is an option.
Not every option is sensible.
Entrepreneurial clarity means selection.
Not completeness.
Many companies don’t get scattered because they know too little.
But because they consider too much possible at the same time.
AI amplifies exactly this pattern.
It opens doors. Very many doors.
Without clarity about which ones are relevant, movement without direction emerges.
That’s why good AI work doesn’t start with learning.
But with a decision.
Which question is crucial for our company right now –
and which is not?
Only then does knowledge become effective.
Before that, it remains noise.
