I'm bullish on boring industrial robots doing one thing 1,000 times under fluorescent lights.
Bearish on humanoid robots that go viral, inspire podcasts, and quietly disappear when the pilot ends.
One signs contracts.
The other burns funding rounds.
Humanoids promise autonomy in 2030.
Teleoperated robots can deliver ROI right now.
For construction & manufacturing companies bleeding cash on labor shortages these robots could be a game changer.
The evolution of human knowledge:
Level 1: Tribe, 1:1 tutors
Level 2: School (Institutions)
Level 3: Internet (search)
Level 4: AI, 1:1 tutoring at scale
For 40 years we knew 1-on-1 tutoring creates geniuses, but we couldn't scale it.
We just solved the "2 Sigma Problem."
The company that is able to pay the most to acquire a customer will always win.
They acquire their customers once and keep them in their ecosystem forever, constantly increasing the lifetime value.
You are right. I have just read it too.
Would have been too crazy😅
Hot news.
X is potentially going to buy TikTok.
What do you think is going to happen to both platforms if it really happens?
Crazy ideas are welcome.
The unstoppable trio:
- Indie dev
- Copywriter
- Influencer/Personal Brand
Internet: Knowledge for the masses
AI: Programming skills for the masses
Yeah I know Kajabi👍
And thanks for dropping the link.
No, I won't click.
Nobody with an app like this would keep it private.😅
Sure ;)
Yes makes total sense! Thanks for sharing :)
Maybe I also have to engage a bit more to kick-start the whole thing.
Do you engage a lot?
Unfortunately, the reach is not that much better here...
Everyone promised a lot of reach, but even here it is nothing compared to LinkedIn or Twitter in 2022/2023.
Yes, I also think that building in public influences this, but also technological progress.
It has never been easier to build products and distribution without VC money.
Yes from this point of view I agree a 100%
I see more and more entrepreneurs moving away from risking everything on one big idea.
They are moving away from one big bet to many small bets.
I'm not sure if that's good or bad.
But one thing's for sure.
As a society, we also need people to take the big risks to change the world.
Discovered that Nero Burning ROM still exists.
I was quite surprised, because I'm not sure who still uses that kind of software.
But for me they had one of the coolest brand names back in the day.
Who remembers them from the good old days?
In theory, yes, but the agency game can easily turn into a nightmare if done wrong.
A nightmare worse than any 9-5 job.
So my tip for first-time agency founders.
Get a mentor early on who knows how to build and grow agencies.
You will thank me later.
Nice idea! And good timing😎
I'm probably late to the party with this idea, but the best way to create ChatGPT prompts is to ask ChatGPT to help you write them.
Total game changer for me.
Improved the output 10x.
Prediction:
There will be a super app that provides creators with all the tools they need.
- Newsletter platform
- Websites
- Writing tools
- Video creation
- Podcasting
- Digital products
- Note taking
- Graphic design
How to make money from trends?
Identifying trends early on is difficult.
And jumping on a trend too late is not ideal because it is hard to beat the first movers.
So what to do instead?
Learn to spot anti-trends.
They are easier to predict because they are the direct result of trends.
Perfect health and longevity.
The new status symbol?
Obstacle = Business opportunity
Every obstacle you face in building a business or in your everyday life could potentially be turned into a digital product.
Ideas don't matter.
Execution does.
Sure, man...
Try executing a shitty idea.
The number one problem why many indie hackers are broke.
And no, it's not marketing or distribution.
It's because many are solving super niche problems in super small markets.
And that makes it hard to find enough customers to make a living.
No market = no money
Most annoying thing ever:
You get all hyped up about a brilliant business idea.
Then you find out that someone else has already built something similar.
I'll never get used to it.
Totally agree!
I think SEO can be super powerful but many just over-engineer it.
