The Index › Metabolic medicine
Which businesses must adjust as their customers change?
Airlines, insurers, landlords and other businesses whose customers may change as the drugs spread.
The waterfall's proof point: Metabolic medicine: laboratory throughput is the productivity lift's nearest proof point, and it reports in pipeline data on a clock of quarters.
Businesses keep adopting AI, but the economy-wide productivity lift does not arrive before 2028.
What would prove us wrong
Productivity jumps much sooner than we expect, or adoption stops spreading.
