Eric opens with Spawn, a company with 10 people that spends about 30 times its payroll on AI, and what an AI-native team looks like in practice. They cover iterating fast while changing less, the Money Prompt, and why experience still matters when AI does the work. Eric runs through Jen Abel's list of what startup sales teams get wrong and the advantage of founder-led sales.
