For thirty years, "personalization" meant merge tags. Hi {{first_name}}, I noticed you went to {{university}}. Everyone knew it was fake. Response rates proved it.

AI didn't fix this by generating better emails. It fixed it by collapsing the cost of actually understanding someone. Reading their posts. Synthesizing their talks.

샘 알트먼은 소프트웨어가 더 이상 정적인 형태가 아니라, 사용자의 작업 방식에 맞춰 순간적으로 생성되고 시간이 지나며 계속 진화하는 ‘탄력적(elastic)’ 형태로 바뀔 것이라고 말했다. AI가 개인화된 소프트웨어를 실시간으로 만들어주는 미래를 시사한다.
