Every era has a decisive miracle material behind it. The Gilded Age relied on steel, the Digital Age on semiconductors, and now AI is emerging in an unprecedented form. It is not just a tool, but like countless tireless brains.



History repeatedly proves that what truly defines an era are those who first master these materials.

Every miracle material requires people to stop looking at the world through a rearview mirror.

Carnegie saw city skylines in steel, textile mill owners saw factories no longer dependent on rivers through steam engines.

And now, we are still patching old processes with AI. It's time to stop treating AI as merely a co-pilot and start imagining what knowledge work itself could become when organizations are reinforced with steel, and trivial tasks are handed over to never-sleeping minds.

Steel, steam, infinite brains.

When effort becomes worthless and intelligence needs external help, what is the way out for ordinary people?
