# Frontier Is Disruptive

<figure><img src="/files/fVjruTVY9YnFxfwKBixR" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Building increasingly powerful AI systems (i.e., AGI and superintelligence) is the most important technical problem of our time.** This pursuit has already reshaped every corner of technology, from vision, language, to robotics.

**The radical rise of AI creates opportunities for adjacent sectors to outcompete well-established incumbents by focusing on the AI frontier.** Rapid frontier innovation erodes the competitive edge of incumbents who struggle to pivot quickly. In this dynamic environment, smaller, specialized teams with a clear mission can move faster, capture market share, and leapfrog slower-moving giants.

**We are already witnessing a realignment of the tech landscape driven by frontier AI.** OpenAI and Anthropic have already disrupted traditional search engines. New cloud-service providers challenge AWS, Microsoft, and Google by optimizing for foundation model workloads. Groq develops specialized chips for foundation models. Meanwhile, companies focused on frontier AI advancement prediction ([Epoch AI](https://epoch.ai)), frontier AI evaluation ([METR](https://metr.org)), frontier AI risk mitigation ([Redwood Research](https://www.redwoodresearch.org), [Apollo Research](https://www.apolloresearch.ai)), and frontier AI safety and security ([Gray Swan AI](https://www.grayswan.ai)) are emerging.

**We believe that focusing on frontier data presents Gata a disruptive opportunity for the AI data industry.** Most data companies operate on an outsourcing model, responding to AI companies’ data demands. They are poised to follow frontier advancements. In contrast, Gata aims to proactively research and produce frontier data that unlocks frontier-level AI advancements. In doing so, Gata drives frontier AI advancements.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://gata.gitbook.io/gata-public-gitbook/thesis/frontier-is-disruptive.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
