I was reading some industry news earlier and it just got me thinking about how much we rely on these massive, legacy giants to pull off the impossible. It feels like we've entered this weird cycle where if a major player hits a snag, everyone just holds its breath and waits for a miracle to keep the whole thing from stalling out.
I remember back in the day, if a project was hitting major hurdles, you’d see it fail or pivot quickly. Now, it feels like these huge entities are so deeply woven into our future—whether it's travel, infrastructure, or tech—that they basically can't be allowed to miss. It creates this massive tension where the stakes feel way higher than they should be for any single venture.
I don't know, maybe I'm just being cynical, but I worry we're trading reliability for scale. Do you think we're becoming too dependent on a handful of massive corporations to drive innovation, or is this just the natural evolution of how big projects work?
