@Altimor What would be your rationale to look for a co-founder? What would you look for in a co-founder?

Another week, another call with a founder whose startup died because he listened to YC's bad advice about absolutely needing a co-founder (2 in the last month)

@dqnamo demo video?

I have been personally using a task manager that I built for myself, and it has received positive feedback whenever I show it to others. Maybe I should open it up for early users. Who's interested in giving it a try? 👀

The problem, for me, is that there has been a nefarious confluence of no code/low code services, a perception of AI as a panacea to the need for expertise and the general disdain for experts. No amount of language expertise will substitute training, experience, and responsibility

I read recently how it is having a transformative effect on medical testing (save the monkeys!). Technical customer service is another big example. It frustrates both the engineers trying to solve customer problems as well as the customers devoted enough to call.

How many GPT does it take to screw a light bulb? I had to get the sarcasm out of the way…I love AI. It's bringing scale to areas as engineers we could only wish for. If something is not affordable for a company, it is not going to be affordable for a customer.

@GoAbiAryan Yes, please. I would love to read the report and the references. Just starting my research.

Also, do you want a report (a 33 page doc) that summarizes some of the key learnings from all of them along with the LLMOps stack?

2023 has been a crazy year in AI research esp forLLMs and GenAI, so I decided to compile a list of my fav most significant papers that are worth a read🧵 ⤵️

[Building an AI-Powered Psychosomatic Life Coach] loom.com/share/848d0979… @_buildspace @_nightsweekends #alterok

I'm creating an AI assistant called Serenity that will help users through psychosomatic meditation sessions, track their intentions and help write journals. 4-serenity.framer.ai @_buildspace @_nightsweekends #alterok

There is so much interesting work in progress. thedeepen.app replika.com

@wa61204259 @_buildspace @_nightsweekends A way to get them over the stigma.

@thundermonger @_buildspace @_nightsweekends Cool! Is this meant to be a substitute for therapy in the long term?

I realized that my goal is to help people find happiness without stigma. how they want to do it is completely up to them. The first iteration of the application would be more like a chatbot and journal. @_buildspace @_nightsweekends #alterok

@wa61204259 @_buildspace @_nightsweekends I want it to be a way to introduce people to tools that exist. Psychotherapy is one of them. Meditation.

@dollice_onx @_buildspace @_nightsweekends I do understand your argument though.

@thundermonger @_buildspace @_nightsweekends I kind of like it, but alsoooo… is your intention to get people to use their phones while on psychedelics? From my exp, the journeys were amazing because of contact with nature and with myself, so tech would kind of ruin that..? 🤔

@dollice_onx @_buildspace @_nightsweekends I'm trying to find a way to help people explore their psyches in a stigma free environment. In my experience, most people have a lot of fear around how they show up and don't want to open up to other people. The aim behind the app is to remove the fear of loss of privacy.

@miltonxren @_buildspace @_nightsweekends This is a really cool idea. Would it also be able to generate a mind map/graph of the associated points? I would love to be a tester for this tool. Are you thinking of using AI to automatically deep dive to find related documents, web pages, etc?

Alright for the next 6 weeks I'll be building an idea capture machine; something similar to Audiopen, and you can summon it via a keyboard shortcut. cc @_buildspace @_nightsweekends

@marcelochaman @_buildspace @_nightsweekends I like the simplicity of your idea. Does it need to be for college students? Would it be possible to search for recipes based on ingredients in stock/preference?

@Kdeshpande3 @_buildspace @_nightsweekends done

@thundermonger @_buildspace @_nightsweekends The plan is to access calendars and maybe other integrations, but not entirely sure yet. I’d love to have you as a beta tester while I figure it out! If you’re interested, pls sign up here: apolloassistant.app

Here's what I'm building during n&w s4 I've always struggled with planning my time effectively and being consistent each week I thought it'd be dope to build something that helped w this, so thats what I'm doing Roast me in the replies cc @_buildspace @_nightsweekends
