Just curious since it seems everyone is mentioning AI in some form in majority of what I see posted here (maybe just the Reddit “algorithm” at work?). It’s almost like not doing AI is enough of a differentiator at this point to stand out in the market. Is there some crossover between Reddit and AI specifically, or is it a bigger trend that everyone is hopping on the AI bandwagon? Feels like “ai” is a rebrand of “machine learning”/“ml” buzzwords from recent past - a lot of fudging the edges of the actual definition, in what I think is an attempt to seem attractive in the funding market. Is anyone concerned about that backfiring?
Not sure why you’d make your company all about AI in the first place?
Solve a genuine business problem first, maybe you use AI to do that, but don’t crowbar it in unless it’s needed to solve the actual problem.
Recent events should have proven that just putting a nice UI in front of a platform is a recipe for being rug-pulled (though it doesn’t help that they’re often able to raise significant VC before that happens…)
