>getting rich in the days of Cuckerberg or Besoz: just need to code some shitty php website>getting rich today: need a PhD in AI and make a technological breakthroughIt's impossible to make it today, all the low hanging fruit has been picked. Even crypto offers no real opportunities because there are too many people and bots to take advantage of every little possibility. We're now like jeets competing over scraps in a New Delhi slum.
the new low hanging fruit is obviously using AI to do something simple that retards will pay forit's not that there is no low hanging fruit. the problem is that, in this globalized economy, you're competing against everyone in the whole world with access to 'compute' (in AI), so the fruit gets gobbled up instantlytertiary sector ideas make the most money and is also the most globalizedprimary & secondary sectors are easily monopolized by large entities with first mover advantageif you have an idea, someone else has it too, and if they can execute faster you are fucked. it's kinda like how you compete against cross-border gigachads on tinder
>>59670491How are you going to compete in AI with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, etc?Any idea you have can be solved by their general purpose models.
The ultimate rug pull, the life rug pulm
>>59670443>>getting rich today: need a PhD in AI and make a technological breakthroughyou wish, even if you're the smartest AI researcher on earth, you need the data and the compute power to show that your algo is an actual breakthrough.today you only become rich if other rich people (VCs) are willing to make you rich.
>>59670496of course you cant compete against those entities in their field. its like trying to compete against microsoft by making an OSim talking about implementations of itthere's people running certain models on server farms who offer users a serviceSuno is a good exampleits business is summed up as UX + some slop modelRunning the model yourself to create some slop songs is not feasible because of the hardware and electricity costs.The UX adds value because making a song on Suno is much easier than if you were to do it with some general model like [insert whatever's good now]sure, as the general models become better and more efficient in terms of hardware reqs/electricity, that rug will be pulled from under you. it is said we live in the age of exponentiality and things happen in the blink of an eye. But that doesnt mean you couldn't have made a good sum of money with a service like SunoEventually the cheese always moves, so you pack your bags to do something new...many companies that didn't innovate to exploit the internet drowned because they didn't go to where the cheese moved, for whatever reasonthere's less cheese, everybody in the world is looking for it, and it moves faster than before
Polymarket is maybe also a good examplewe all could have made that website but why didn't we?idk. Im not arguing against your point. it's difficult and the game keeps changing so much/fast that you have a very limited window of opportunity for everything
wrong it has never been easier to be rich today than beforehow ? you get into welding or tradeschool
>>59670443You'll never get rich with that attitude.
>>59670443Just be a woman and whore yourself on OF otherwise you are out of luck because golden age of white man is gone.
>>59670443more like, make a meme shitcoin or sell ass pics on of
>>59670443Bezos didnt get rich from a php website, he completely transformed online shopping (it was barely a thing before) and build huge networks of storage and shipping centers, compared to that a website like Facebook really is childsplay
>>59670443just buy picrel and shut the fuck up.
>>59672635Yea seriously the software side of there shopping service was almost nothing. Though they are basically just a cloud computing company now.
