@sweatystartup Can’t tell if Nick is just rage baiting or if he’s just not that informed lol. Of course that is the flow, but it typically takes 40-60 years for that cycle to play out. When technology replaces jobs, it causes a tremendous amount of short term pain (decades, not 1-5 years).

Every technological advancement in history has been the same story: 1) it’ll take our jobs!!! 2) things get cheaper 3) demand for those things goes way up 4) qualify of life goes up 5) demand for other things goes up 6) # of jobs in other areas increase dramatically

In the last few weeks I have talked to: - $500m/year CEO - CMO of billion dollar brand - Hall of fame athlete All of them are starting personal brand YouTube channels from scratch. And going all in. Having an organic audience is the moat.

There's never been a better time to start an AI-first business to disrupt an existing market because all the people in that existing market are busy running their businesses rather than learning AI and using words like "AI-first" rather than actually being AI-first.

BYE-BYE SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGERS IN 2026. I use Claude to design, edit, and schedule 30 days of content in 2 hours. Here are 7 prompts that can do the same for you:

@b0bby_trades @sweatystartup The only person with a brain in the comments lol

@sweatystartup I am convinced this isn’t even ragebait it’s actually just bait for people to call it ragebait

You guys are spending your Sunday nights watching grown men fight over a ball. I’m making cold calls and working on my business plans. It is SOOO easy to win in this life just by working hard.. Zig when everyone else zags.

I wasted most of my 20s in a corporate job (mgmt consulting). Since leaving ~3 years ago, I've 10x'd my salary. Most people don't quit their job because they overestimate the downside cost. In reality, the true mistake is underestimating the upside reward of going on your own. It's hard to understand this until you experience it for the first time, but once you do, staying vs leaving becomes a stupidly obvious decision. This single choice has had the single largest impact on my work life and will drive compounding benefits in everything I do moving forward. Because of this, the "cost" of staying was actually much greater than the potential cost of leaving. If I could do it again, I'd play it differently and quit much much sooner.

pretty much anything you build today should come with a cli for agents. agents are about to come from every single lab, not just clawdbot

the best 20 accounts to follow in AI: @karpathy = LLMs king @steipete = built openclaw @gregisenberg = startup ideas king @rileybrown = vibecode king @corbin_braun = cursor king @jackfriks = solo apps king @levelsio = solo startups king @marclou = solo startups king @EXM7777 = AI ops + systems king @eptwts = AI money twitter king @godofprompt = prompt king @vasuman = AI agents king @AmirMushich= AI ads king @0xROAS = AI UGCs king @egeberkina = AI images king @MengTo= AI landing pages king @rryssf_ = automations king @kloss_xyz = systems architecture king @emollick = AI science king @Hesamation = AI/ML king follow them all and learn.

this is a no-brainer if you're using claude code

ok this is weird new app called "rent a human" ai agents "rent" humans to do work for them IRL 1. humans make profile skills, location, rated 2. agents find humans with mcp/api & give instructions 3. humans do tasks IRL 4. humans get paid in stablecoins etc instantly

my current AI stack here’s what I’m using: Claude Code, KIWI K2.5, Codex (coding) Cursor (IDE + debugging) Lovable (web app prototypes) Vibecode (mobile apps) Gemini 3 Pro (frontend/UI) Midjourney (viral image styles) Nano Banana Pro, Grok (image gen) Topaz Bloom (image upscaling) Veo 3.1, Kling, Grok (video gen) Topaz Astra (video upscaling) Meshy AI (image to 3D model) Deepmind’s Genie (3D worlds) HeyGen, Higgsfield (AI influencers) Opus Clip (viral clipping) Veed (captions/editing) CapCut (quick video editing) Jitter, Remotion (motion graphics) ElevenLabs (voice gen) Suno (music gen) Wispr Flow (voice to text) Claude (copywriting) Perplexity (research) Gamma (presentations) n8n (automation) Supabase (backend) Vercel (v0 + hosting) Figma (design) Framer (websites) Notion (second brain) Claude Cowork (file manager) OpenClaw (always on employees) what’s missing? I’ll try it and report back

Remotion is a really really really big deal. This will change everything. It's not that good now compared to what it will be in 3 months. I'm showing some YouTube Editors and they are floored and are already implementing it into their workflows. It's much more useful if you already create videos rather than as a standalone tool.

Today, we're releasing Claude Code for marketing. It does a marketer's work in minutes by browsing, clicking, and posting like a human would. The marketing hire is now optional:

I want an accountant that uses claude code...I just reconciled one of my local businesses books today and I'm far from being an expert loaded in bank statements, receipts, invoices, etc. and created a lifetime overview, a q4 report, and a CFO level deep dive in a couple hours

"Passion" comes from the Latin “passio” which means "suffering" and "endurance." So people think that following your passion means doing something you love, when it really means finding something that you are willing to suffer for.

I wish upon everyone a failure that brings you to your knees. Sounds harsh, but I mean it from a place of love. Three years ago this month, I sold a failing company for a massive loss. My finances were in shambles. I nearly lost everything. But not all losses are negative. I also lost the arrogance of someone who had never failed. I lost the parts of my identity that were no longer serving me. I lost the illusion of my ability to control outcomes. I lost my attachment to a carefully manicured self-image. In the pain of loss, I found freedom. I lost material wealth only to find deep inner wealth. I gained more wisdom from that single failure than all of my wins combined. I now view those losses as the greatest gift of my life. If you are in a tough season, know this: Your ego is a small price to pay for the version of yourself that you are becoming.

There are graveyards full of people who constantly told themselves “one day.”

@Camp4 Kevin, I’ve got to be one of your biggest fans. You are a life mentor for me without knowing. I treat people like Hormozi as a business mentor, but it is so refreshing to have someone like you to give me direction and not get too caught up in grinding on work all the time.

How to change your life: I’m an observational learner—I watch what people do then judge the behavior by the outcome. Over time, patterns emerge. 😠Here’s an observation that will make some of you mad: I’ve never met someone who’s spent years in therapy and thought, 'they really have their stuff together'. In fact, it’s usually the opposite. On the other hand, I’ve met many people who’ve turned their lives around by: 1) Getting super fit 2) Finding their tribe & building a strong inner circle 3) Relocating & rebooting (🙋‍♂️) 4) Pursuing mastery in something that brings them joy 5) Facing their demons head-on with action 👉Do these things and you can completely transform your life in one year. If you’re not mad yet, let’s turn up the heat even more: In many cases, talk therapy becomes a sneaky form of avoidance—not only does it not help, it becomes a block to progress. It’s cathartic to talk about things. It feels productive, but… 👉Talk should come secondary to action. Do the hard thing—even if it's just a first step—and there will be less to talk about. As Rumi said: “When you start to walk the way, the way appears.” The video below is one of my favorite examples. In the midst of a personal crisis, my friend Scott… 1) Got fit 2) doing something he loves 3) and along the way found his tribe (and love). The result was a complete 180—from the depths of despair to living his best life. Here’s the truth: Deep down, we usually know what we need to do to make our lives better… we just don’t want to do it. Maybe what you need is less talk and more action. PS: To be clear, I’m a huge fan of seeking advice, coaching, and mentoring. Talking things through can be helpful, but in most cases the answer is staring us in the mirror.

A lesson I wish I learned earlier: Anxiety feeds on idleness. You’re anxious because you’re not doing anything. When you take action, you starve anxiety of the oxygen it needs to survive. The answer is found in the action.
