Everyone’s selling AI shovels. Where’s the Actual Gold?

I diagnose you with stage 3 entrepreneurial myopia.

Quick, list a business that does not exist within the over-saturated markets of social media marketing, dropshipping, AI, courses, and crypto.

You mother F*ckers are not in AI.

500,000 people say they have an AI company.

Like 3 people actually have an AI company.

That’s like saying you’re a search engine because you embedded Google into your website. You are not Google.

And you sure as shit are not OpenAI. You are not Reid...

Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread

Another gold nugget from fs.blog :

We avoid doing simple things that work because they don't make us look smart.

Smart people feel stupid doing simple things, so we invent complicated alternatives that accomplish less but feel more intellectually satisfying.

Meanwhile, the people who dominate their fields are doing embarrassingly basic things, but they do them better than everyone else.
