The follow-on analysis
We wrote a follow-on piece building on the analysis Forbes cited. It picks up on what Westpac CEO Anthony Miller said at Microsoft AI Tour Sydney: AI productivity only happens when it diffuses across the economy, not just into the F1000.
Why the headline AI deals from Microsoft, Anthropic, and OpenAI will not reach the 99 percent of Australian businesses between 5 and 500 staff, and why the MSP layer is the channel that does.
