AI enables the stereotypical "idea guy" to suddenly be a "builder". Of course, they are learning in realtime that having the idea was always the easy part...
replyI had found this rebuttal: Ideas are cheap only if you have cheap ideas.
replyI would argue good ideas are not so easy to find. It is harder than it seems to fit the market, and that is why most of apps fail. At the end of the day, everyone is blinded by hubris and ignorance... I do include myself in that.
They may not be the easiest thing to find, but I'd submit that good ideas are way more common than the skill and resources needed to capitalise on them
replyMore interesting question than what? And also, say you have an answer to that question, what insight do you have now that you didn't have before?
replyWell the claim was that AI makes you boring. The counter is that interesting people remain interesting, it's just that a flood of previously already boring people are pouring into tech. We could make some predictions that depend on how you model this. For instance, the absolute number of interesting projects posted to HN could increase or decrease, and likewise for the relative number vs total projects. You might expect different outcomes
replyI'm going to guess the same way Money makes rich people turn into morons, AI will turn idiots into...oh...no
