Growing up in the 80s, half our arguments came down to one thing. Who owned it. Turns out that was practice.

AI can generate almost anything now, almost instantly. The rules for who owns what are years behind, and they are going to stay behind. That gap is where the advantage lives.

Until governance catches up, the one thing you can actually control is what you own. Your patents and trademarks. Your likeness. Your voice. Your name. The work only you would have made.

Capability is getting cheaper every week. Ownership is getting rarer. My latest piece is on why that trade decides more than most people think.

Welcome AI Vendtures™ to the EFFX Ventures portfolio.

AI Vendtures is an operating platform for autonomous food, alongside its consumer brand, Heavendly™. It puts real, oven-fresh meals where people actually are, and serves the dietary needs high-traffic venues overlook. It starts from proof, not theory.

Its anchor, Hot Nosh, has run at Fenway Park for 18 straight seasons under co-founder and CEO Wayne Feder, who built one of the most recognized automated food programs in the country long before the market was ready.

AI Vendtures joins the EFFX Ventures portfolio, a company we are building and operating alongside the founding team behind it. The technology was right when we entered this space twenty years ago. Now the timing is too.

Swipe to meet the team behind it. Full announcement in our stories.

The best opportunities are rarely marked with a giant X.

One of the lessons I took away from The Goonies wasn’t about treasure. It was about perspective.

The group saw possibilities where everyone else saw dead ends.

I’ve found the same thing to be true in business.

The biggest opportunities I’ve encountered rarely came from chasing trends or following the crowd. They came from looking at industries, products, and processes that had stopped evolving and asking a simple question:

“Why does it still work this way?”

In my latest article, I share the thinking behind EFFX AI Ventures, the philosophy that connects the companies we’re building, and why I believe AI is creating a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reimagine industries that have been waiting far too long for change.

The proof, as they say, is in the pudding.

We’ve got a few things cooking.

You can’t vibe code experience.

For years my world was 100+ developers and designers, tens of thousands of Confluence pages, and a Jira backlog with no bottom. Front end, back end, iOS, Android, DevOps, architects, QA, project managers, designers.

As a former CCO, my job wasn’t just the look and feel. It was getting the look and feel through that machine and out into the world.

So when people tell me AI is magic, I agree. I just understand the trick.

Here’s what nobody selling you a shortcut will tell you:

You can’t foresee how a product behaves at scale if you’ve never watched one behave at scale. You can’t prepare to onboard thousands of users without the infrastructure underneath them.

The model will answer every question you think to ask. It won’t tell you which questions you forgot to ask.

AI didn’t make experienced leadership less important. It made it more important.

It’s a multiplier, and it multiplies what you bring to it. Bring it judgment built from years of shipping real products and it moves mountains. Bring it nothing and it will confidently build you something that breaks the first time it meets the real world.

I don’t use AI to skip the experience. I use it because I have the experience.

That’s the part you can’t prompt.

Schools are running student papers through AI detectors and penalizing the ones that get flagged.

Meanwhile, every company those students will eventually work for is rebuilding around AI.

We are telling an entire generation that the most consequential tool of their professional lives is something they should feel guilty about touching.

I have six kids in university or grad school right now, across multiple institutions. The inconsistency between schools, departments, and individual professors is something I see in real time. One class encourages exploration. The next threatens probation. Same student. Same week.

That is not a policy. That is avoidance.

I understand the instinct. Educators spent careers building systems designed to measure original thinking, and a tool that can produce a passable essay in seconds genuinely threatens the way those systems work. But the answer is not to ban it, detect it, and punish it. The answer is to teach students the difference between using a tool and surrendering their thinking to it.

A student who prompts an LLM with “write me a 1,000 word essay on the French Revolution” gets a generic answer, turns it in, and learns nothing.

A student who uses AI to pressure-test their thesis, challenge their logic, surface counterarguments, and tighten a draft they already understand is doing something completely different.

Same tool. Different outcome. The difference is judgment.

A fool with a tool is still a fool. That part is true. But a student taught to use AI with ownership and honesty is exactly the kind of thinker the next decade needs.

Schools have a choice to make. Prepare students for the world as it was, or the world they are actually walking into.

What are you seeing? In your kids’ schools, in your workplace, in your own learning?
