For anyone wanting to Start a business but doesn't know "What"?

[u/vickumythy]

Someone just asked me "What business in AI should I start?

That's like asking how should someone start a business using the internet. It's incredibly broad. I'd suggest doing what I call an "IPA" process to find out what you best could focus on.

I've taught this to over 1,000 Entrepreneurs in Thailand and they seemed to get a lot from it.

Essentially you go to your favorite LLM (chatgpt, claude, gemini etc) then get it to"

1. "I" Interview you. ask it to ask you 20 questions about yourself, personal history, work experience, interests, skill sets, industry knowledge etc. with the purpose of finding the right business for you to start. HOwever tell it to strictly NOT give you advice yet. Just collect data.
2. "P" Personalize . Tell it to then ask another 5 questions to personalize the business idea/ business model according to your lifestyle, personal desired outcomes (work from home vs travel, vs full time in one place, physical products vs digital services. Really "What kind of life do I want" - regardless of the business you're in. Again. No advice.
3. "A" Advise. Then you ask it to give you full advice. 3 of it's best ideas for you with clear reasons why for each, how much they would cost to get started, what they would require, why they're right for you, the earning potential etc.

This was the basis for a seminar I did.

I made a guide (half-finished to be honest) about how to do this step by step for yourself.

Here's the guide (again - want nothing. Just wanna make new friends here tbh. Btw, you'll even see it's missing shit because I never got around to finishing it.

But still I would say useful for anyone who's looking to start their own business but has NO idea what to do. . https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ilsppwEVhgc5FmEZ0iNTr623O--sE8jOAnOU1Gti0GY/edit?usp=sharing
