The Right AI Mindset: It's Not About Replacing Human Thinking

Just listened to this fantastic conversation between Pablo Torre, Daryl Morey, and MIT's Sendhil Mullainathan on AI.

Sendhil makes a sharp point: the goal isn't to build AI that thinks like humans - it's to expand what we can see and do.

"We already have people who think like people. What we need are algorithms that can see things we never could."

That mindset shaped how we built Outward Intelligence - the world's first AI-native quantitative research platform. Not to replace human expertise, but to amplify it.

We believe the future belongs to experts who know how to ask the right questions, frame the problem, and then let algorithms run with it. As Sendhil puts it:

"Experts who can take an ill-formed problem and actually formulate it in a way that it becomes tangible and actionable… Figuring out where to focus the problem in this ocean of stuff is actually very, very, very hard."

Tech alone isn't enough. The magic happens when experts guide it.
