10 AI Business Ideas From The Queen of AI ft. Sarah Guo

[@Velox18]

I can't imagine an AI polly pocket friend... but a pocket David Goggins could be beneficial.

[@jhanlon8]

Bahahahaha 1000%. Need this

[@Muhluri]

That 3rd idea (around 13 mins in) is pretty smart. Sometimes influencers get too many products that they can't make sponsored posts for all of them. Being able to use an AI likeness to make more videos would easily increase revenue for influencers

[@LeePenkman]

AI social network/AI friends interesting space now for sure too (netwrck) Potential to compete with heyGen is here now with liveportrait and hallo being really good quality off the shelf so lots of opportunity here on the tech side its surprisingly easy! Also lots based on face swap as well so can be completely different source and target characters

[@michaelnurse9089]

There is a limited amount of people available to watch this bs. Once each influencer is putting out 30 videos a day thanks to AI fatigue will set in.

[@AIWeLearn]

Cool thx for the highlight. We will be teaching Ai through motion videos

[@activeoneaudio7792]

Why is she Queen of AI ? Has she designed any LLM or anything groundbreaking ? her linkedin doesn't talk much about her education, neither her website. Don't think she has any technical education as well. She is just another sales girl who has created a bubble around her through PR. Also, is it a norm today to have an Altman voice to be relevant in the AI world ?

[@firsthelix6726]

I agree. The age of mass adoption of AI tech has just begun, and here comes a 30 someting year old young woman to be called the ‚queen of AI’. AI exists since the 1950, so where are the real kings and queens? On top of that, she doesn't even know what a niche market is. Talking fast using a ton of buzz words is obviously enough to be on a show. I don't understand why guests who are supposedly experts in their field are never challenged, why their statements and theories are never questioned. Everyone just nods meaningfully and nobody ‚hurts’ each other. I don't expect a hot seat, but some critical thinking, reality checks and counter-theses would enhance the show intellectually.

[@yeverett4533]

Agree with you 100 percent.

Hi Shaan and Sam, perhaps the title 'Queen of AI' could be seen as a bit overwhelming, and it might unintentionally reinforce certain disagreements?

[@CoachMarkspeaks]

She was definitely the most evasive guest ever. I wish she would’ve just brought a list of things she can talk about 😩 😶

[@darcymason319]

[@har.19]

She's defs 💸💸 focused haha.. I remember hearing that VCs are opportunists and the entrepreneurs are the visionaries

[@incredible200]

The companion thing is smart, the video is not, imo. The video AI assumes the market will react the same to this content as organic content, but i believe video software like that is equal to telemarketing. not content users want to engage with. just my 2 cents

[@Ryan.G.Spalding]

Agree, the first AI sales phone call I was obsessed and talked to it for 5-10 mins, after the 5th one I just hang up like normal. People’s BS detectors are pretty well trained, and will be even better.

[@VastonViji]

Great pod, need more AI startups with great potential. Sarah was insightful, though I kept thinking Laurie Bream

[@Smail-AI]

34:08 100% no BS AI solution for a real problem, I already delivered such AI voice bot receptionists or lead qualification bots to clients in the US. They are very useful and all businesses will definitely need that at some point.

[@krisb-travel]

[@GET2222]

I was with her…. Then she went into Silicon Valley Brat mode. “Anyone can start a business” 😂 then she went on to say “there is no linear path from here to there” AI is not linear. I own two software companies for 15 years in AI. She could not be more wrong. 😂 Andrew Karpathy is brilliant though.

[@firsthelix6726]

I agree! Saying "AI is not linear" oversimplifies the diverse field of AI. It suggests a homogeneity that doesn't exist, as AI includes a vast range of techniques and models, both linear and nonlinear.

THANK YOU GUYS GOR THE FIRST 15 MINUTES!! (The entire interview was 🔥🔥🔥, but the first 15 changed my life!!!!

I needed a translator for this one. Lots of jargon and non-specifics for me from Sarah. Seems like someone so far into a certain group of people that they don't know how to explain their field to others outside that group in ordinary English.

[@nana19994]

you guys should do an episode using AI, would be fun!

[@gustavotiffer09]

I explored Hey Gen. Pretty cool! My sense though is... there's gonna be a huge swing toward anti-AI. (Shaan has talked about that in other niches/industries. i.e. the permanence of Facebook created the temporary-ness of Snapchat) I think there's gonna be a big group of companies/people/groups that say "hell no" to AI. And there's still gonna be a huge opportunity for "manual" businesses (writing, video, editing, etc.)

[@michaelnurse9089]

"there's still gonna be a huge opportunity for "manual" businesses" I don't know, there are people who still pay to have butlers and grooms on their staff but is it 'huge'? People are against phones but even they HAVE to have one for convenience and cost reasons.

[@gustavotiffer09]

@@michaelnurse9089 fair enough! I just think there's still like 50% of the population who haven't used and will never use AI. I have like 10 close friends who aren't on twitter or very online at all and they don't give a sh*t about AI. Sam eludes to this near the end of the conversation when he says like, "my brother or family members don't care about AI"

I was in San Fran just once and had my life threatened on the BART train. First time in USA baby!

[@ytfanfan]

In my opinion, the global public education system won't adjust quickly enough to keep up with the rapid advancements in technology and AI. This lag means that transitioning low-wage jobs could become a major issue, especially if machines take over these roles or if higher levels of training are required for new minimum-wage jobs. It's easy to feel pessimistic about this, but let's brainstorm ideas that could counter this trend and create profitable next million dollar businesses. That would be an interesting episode!

[@zachcarrizales5038]

I think you underestimating just how cable people (of all ages) are across the aggregate. Necessity is a strong influence

[@Nina_2288]

[@thedevlife]

@52:08 do you think that people becoming more productive at their job in turn eliminates jobs? If one person would be able to do the work of 2 or 3 people, those positions would be eliminated, right? maybe I'm looking at this from a pessimistic perspective.

[@olenagirich1884]

True and what effect that will have on society in summary

[@justinduveen3815]

I agree with Sarah, Shaan and Sam that AI is super helpful with specific tasks. Most of us are drowning in work. AI (especially AI agent teams) can free up your time to spend on more valuable activities.

[@michaelslifecycle]

She doesn’t seem to understand why certain industries are more resistant to cost improvements. There are more people that feed their families in the system that we have now than there will be if we make these organizations more efficient. It isn’t only due to regulation. Some of it is intentional. She is literally suggesting indirectly that we take food off of people’s dinner plates in order to simply make an organization more efficient. But, why? That’s the real question. I think she needs to be more honest about her motive, which is clearly and solely profits. It just goes to show that a higher level of intelligence doesn’t correlate with a higher level of morality.

Boomers said the same about the interwebs back in 1997.

[@chads2219]

The issue is how it is being developed. We don't need "All Knowing" A.I., what we need is each LLM to be specific to areas and fields and built to do specific things just like we have done with computer software. Why they attempt to make it "human like" is beyond me and completely unnecessary.

[@zk2507]

What does Sarah mean when she says wedges?

[@MarkAlanEffinger]

Awesome question: more like the slice of a pie: basically a wedge is an instrument (in this case, AI) applied to a niche industry. Once the wedge is in and finds the opportunity (problem) in the niche, you can drive it in and expand the market.

I don’t know but wow it’s annoying to hear over and over. I think it’s the way she pronounces “niche”

@@BNelly22 And she doesn't even know what a niche is, which is even more embarrassing - but so does almost every other online marketer...

[@firsthelix6726]

@@MarkAlanEffinger Sorry, doesn't make sense to me! First of all, an niche market is small and specific, with low to no competition, and there is typically no economies of scale. What you are saying might work in markets with certain potential. If you want to scale a business, you don't wanna waste your time and energy with focusing a problem in a niche. Not sure why a VC would suggest such a strategy, they're in the business to make big money, not to find niche markets.
