Your product might not benefit from AI but you definitely can get more VC investment dollars if you bolt an LLM onto the side of it and feature AI as central to what you’re offering. This is because VCs treat tech like fashion and don’t actually understand how it works or how it would integrate into our lives.

This was true for the nascent internet, and for blockchain even more, but truly nobody really understands how llms work so its way worse.

In Yosemite it is illegal to use power tools so all those bolts were drilled by hand by hitting a masonry drill bit with a hammer and twisting.

That’s been my survival mechanism. I’d be homeless otherwise but I was able to hyperfixate on work related things and become a workaholic after failing out of school (where I couldn’t focus on courses I didn’t like).

My life/work balance has never been good, but its awesome to be fixated on the thing people pay you money to do.
