Artificial intelligence is no longer merely a science-fiction scenario – it is reshaping how we work, how we create, and how we understand human potential. Paulius Jurcys, an intellectual property law expert and AI researcher who has spent the past decade in Silicon Valley building and studying AI twins, shares his insights.
In Silicon Valley, Jurcys found himself in an environment where some of the most consequential technological shifts were born.
“People come from all over the world, bringing their ideas and the ambition to build a product. It is an extraordinarily dynamic environment,” he said.
That same dynamism drove exceptionally high turnover of people. Before the pandemic, roughly a quarter of San Francisco’s population changed every year.
This reflected the competitive climate and the sheer pace of technological development: “People arrive, build a product, commercialise it, and move on.”
