The rise and fall of Kodak perfectly explains what's going on with AI in the world.

Kodak. 1970s. Making money hand over fist.

They're the dominant player in the physical film industry with 90 percent of the market.

Every movie, every photo, even TV shows, they all use film.

One of their engineers has a groundbreaking invention.

A camera that can capture images digitally rather than film.

The engineer brings this to Kodak's executives.

He thinks they're going to be so excited.

The executives have the opposite reaction.

This is going to ruin their business.

They're scared.

They bury this new technology.

Other companies - Sony, Canon, Nikon - begin to innovate.

The market slowly starts to shift.

Early 2000s, the shift to digital is heavy.

Kodak is trying to catch up.

By 2012, they file for bankruptcy after years of declining sales due to the technology that was their own invention.

And if you see parallels with this story and what's going on today, that's because we are seeing it with many companies and artificial intelligence.
