"A new study from KPMG in the University of Texas at Austin found that when people work with AI, similar skills don't guarantee similar outcomes. Researchers studied more than 500 early career professionals and found that the best performers consistently amplify the value of AI by guiding, evaluating, and refining its outputs. These top performers, called AI amplifiers, weren't defined by what they knew alone, but by how they worked with AI. Learn more about what separates AI amplifiers from everyone else at KPMG.com slash US slash AI amplifiers. At this point, it's no longer a question of whether companies are actively using AI. Using it well on the other hand is a whole different story. Robots and pencils, though, is a company that I can point to that is actually built for this time. They're an applied AI engineering firm working directly with clients on problems that matter to the business, not experiments that live in a slide deck. Every engagement starts by working backwards from the outcome a client actually needs. If you're trying to tell real AI engineering apart from noise in this space, that's the difference maker. Head to robots and pencils.com. Every episode we cover the competition between open AI and thropic, SpaceX AI, Google and Meta. Chances are you've already formed an opinion about who's leading, but every AI lab is taking a different approach, building different technologies, forging different partnerships and developing a unique ecosystem. Harbor Capital Advisors AI Lab ecosystem ETF suite gives investors a way to gain exposure to the AI ecosystem they believe is best position for success.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Every AI coding tool on the market does the same thing first. It starts writing code. Blitzie does the opposite. Before writing a single line, Blitzie spends days reverse engineering your entire code base. Thousands of agents ingest millions of lines, mapping every dependency, every undocumented constraint, every architectural decision made over the last decade. The result is a dynamic knowledge graph that understands your software the way the principal engineer would after 30 years in the building. Other tools guess at context with Grep searches and markdown files, Blitzie never guesses. It builds true understanding first, then delivers over 80% of entire software epics autonomously, validated, and-to-end tested production grade pull requests. That's why Fortune 500 engineering teams trust Blitzie with the code bases that matter most. See for yourself at Blitzie.com, that's B-L-I-T-Z-Y.com."

"But for now, that's going to do it for today's AI Daily Brief. Appreciate you listening or watching as always. And until next time, peace."
