THE MOBILE S-CURVE ENDS, AND THE AI S-CURVE BEGINS (12 MINUTE READ)
[12]

S-curve products are fueled by novelty. This is why there is a rush
of new users without much marketing effort whenever there are major
tech releases. There is both high growth and high churn in the early
stages of an S-curve. The skills needed to succeed in a late S-curve
market are very different. Investors will be looking for products that
are radically different. A good design can help differentiate late
S-curve products.

federated social networks as consumers want to have more control over
their personal data.
