This article, focusing on AI, platforms, and network effects, distinguishes between products that are “like air” (that one needs continuously and is critical for survival) versus “like hair cuts” (that one needs only once in a while and can do without).

At least since the industrial revolution, the basic model of a market and how companies create value has been the same. Companies buy, make, and sell stuff.
