Consumer AI Decoded
Unraveling the Future of AI in Consumer Tech
Hello Everyone,
Welcome to the first edition of ConsumerAIDecoded! In today’s post, we want to introduce ourselves and share the vision behind this blog.
We are a diverse group of professionals who met in London. Geographically, we are a Spaniard, an Argentinean, and an Englishman with Indian heritage—can you guess who’s who?
Professionally, our expertise spans decades in digital consumer products. Two of us are engineers (one deeply immersed in software and hardware since childhood), while the third is a highly experienced product leader with a track record across the Atlantic.
Despite our varied backgrounds, we share a passion for scaling businesses and believe AI will unlock unprecedented opportunities in consumer industries and society at large.
Why Are We Doing This?
As we navigate the evolving Consumer AI landscape, we've encountered challenges in understanding its complexities and implications. That’s why we’re creating this space—to break down key concepts, share insights from our everyday conversations, and spark inspiration for others looking to explore or build in the AI-driven world.
What to Expect in the Coming Months
We will be exploring AI’s impact on consumer businesses through:
Deep dives into hot topics, analyzing their implications for new ventures.
Trend identification based on our research, conversations, and daily observations.
Case studies & interviews featuring companies and entrepreneurs you should know.
AI demystification, with explainers such as why are MCPs key in Agentic AI?
We also hope to compare AI developments globally—what’s happening in China’s eCommerce space? What’s unfolding in the MENA region? Can Europe truly compete with the US juggernauts in consumer AI? So much to discuss!
And, to truly walk the talk, we’ll be using AI-driven tools to enhance the way we blog—making our work more efficient and fun.
We’d love to hear from you—whether it’s questions, feedback, or topics you’d like us to explore.
Welcome to this journey of discovery, inspiration, and innovation. Let’s make it exciting!
– Mal, Fer & Maria
