Enterprise AI – Your best people are training someone else’s AI.

Building on Satya Nadella’s The Reverse Information Paradox (July 2026), and on the tabular foundation model work of Prior Labs (TabPFN). The paradox and the exhaust framing are Nadella’s; the proof that prior-fitted, adapt-by-inference models work in production is theirs; the argument that the same substrate should be pushed from prediction into decisions is mine. I work on causal foundation models for industrial operations, so treat the enthusiasm accordingly, and the argument on its own terms.
