@sama so ChatGPT operator should validate results of output for important cases, hence need for human expertise not going away any time soon
English
ChatGPT is incredibly limited, but good enough at some things to create a misleading impression of greatness.
it's a mistake to be relying on it for anything important right now. it’s a preview of progress; we have lots of work to do on robustness and truthfulness.

@MarcJSchmidt @mostlydj @levelsio startup idea: app, where you can enter website names, and it will explain what exactly given website does.

You don't need to generate tonnes of unique content. Instead, master distribution and adaptation. Find platforms with your target audience ➡️ generate content ➡️ distribute adapted versions through these platforms. Here's an example ⬇️

We earned $32 000 in 6 months.
Here are 10 business principles that made it happen 🧵

@rrmdp @kylegawley yep, essentially it is like another fulltime job (which could be shared between parents and/or other helpers) in terms of workload

@ibobriakov @kylegawley Cheers, so is a lot harder if you have kids you reckon

The ultimate hack when starting out is moving from an expensive western country to somewhere like SE Asia

@Austen From our cognitive capabilities: The average attention span can hold about 7 objects at a time. So the 'magical number seven,' plus or minus two gives a range of 5 to 9 reports one can realistically manage.

I've always heard that a CEO should have no more than 8 reports, but I can't figure out for the life of me where that comes from

@kylegawley Some places in Eastern Europe are on par with or even less expensive than, say, Bali these days."

@kylegawley @rrmdp mostly schools are either hit or miss in Asia or very expensive private international schools

@nmasc_ @accidentalflyer @alex @airtable @howieliu What works in environments with an abundance of available resources may not work in environments with scarce resources.

@levelsio @marckohlbrugge @dannypostma So it seems if one aims to sustain long-term growth, the fight against competitors will be constant, as they will always commoditize any innovation that may give a quick competitive advantage in the beginning."
English
@marckohlbrugge @dannypostma They out executed @dannypostma and me really well, lessons:
- we built on top of APIs, limited by resources and pricing, they seem to went straight to running their own GPU servers, so less limits and lower cost
= don't build on APIs

$1M+ in daily revenue 🤯
Mixed feelings, as @levelsio and @dannypostma were first. But it confirms my thesis that "normal people" don't know how to upload photos to a website.
Photos are locked in their phone so a mobile app can offer a more streamlined UX to the masses
Loopify 🧙♂️@Loopify
This mobile app called "Lensa" is going crazy right now, doing $1M+ in revenue per day, growing rapidly. (see img below) It uses Stable Diffusion to create AI images of anyone if you give it 20 images. Some people see new tech and get fearful, others see opportunity.

2) Distribution > Content
Our blog articles are okay. Some of them are even good.
But it doesn't matter this much.
What is important — how many people read them.
That's why we spend more time distributing content than creating it.

The next big thing may take 3 days to reach 1 million users, and maybe then we are steps away from the singularity event
World of Statistics@stats_feed
Time it took to reach 1 million users: Netflix - 3.5 years Twitter- 2 years Facebook - 10 months Spotify - 5 months Instagram - 3 months ChatGPT - 5 days
