Manual Labour is Expensive. If we're ignoring the Tools of The Future, we're Already Paying For It.

Updated: Aug 22, 2022



We've a lot of reservations about leveraging the efficacy of tools to increase productivity without sacrificing an iota of quality because of the fear that one day it might make us redundant. However, this is not necessarily true.


We here at OBI, humbly urge you to take a gander at this short video here and tell us whether you still feel that not using the Tools for The Future would not make us redundant sooner than later:

Tools can help us to be more productive and efficient, but they will never be able to replace human beings completely. There will always be tasks that only humans can do, such as creativity, emotional intelligence, and social interactions.


My humble submission is that if we simply realise that all that we (i.e. us, homo sapiens) have been able to achieve so far is merely a half-decent emulation of the innovation that nature has already designed for us in some shape or form, then we can easily take care of our lizard brain that keeps throwing contradictions at us.


While throwing people at problems have been a preferred way of tackling multitude of challenges stemming from various projects but clearly, it is a far cry away from being efficient. Anything that is remotely related to instruction driven execution should be handled through efficient tools that can shorten the path to the desired output.


Having said that, human beings of course would always be required at some level to do the thinking and ensure that the tools are wielded in the most efficient and secure manner practicable. Only the level to which the thoughts would need to be distilled and broken down would become more and more abstract with time.


Here, at OBI aka One Billion Ideas, we are spending a lot of time in mastering these tools so that we can bring ideas to life for you - Faster, Cheaper and Better. We are not on a mission to convert non-believers to believers. It's too much to ask for from a bunch of nerds who are still trying to find our ways in this jungle.


Our mission to help reduce the gaping hole between an individual coming up with an idea that is focussed on making something more simple & efficient and the myriad of obstacles quantified in time, money & patience that one has to grapple with before the idea is born into the world.


We do not have any vested interest in prolonging the lifecycle of an idea in an effort to extract the last time & dime from our partners.
