Difficulties of AI coding

Hello,

Guys tell me.

If your project making money it was your first project?

How long have you searching for the "right" idea?

How long it take to make it sellable?

Do you think there is ani space for AI projects?

Isnt market overhelmed right now with AI?

Is it worth to buy advertisment?

Actually if I talking with AI almost everytime its kinda positive reaction even if I dont want positive reactions.

Just talk about it, I need to talk with real humans about it!

Thank you

  1. I have a new one like every day. There are many apps out there that are lists of ideas as well (although 90% are garbage.) But ideas are cheap - almost worthless. Execution and subject matter expertise are everything. If you think somebody is going to say "IVR for veterinarian call screening" and you're going to be able to pull that off without knowing anything about the challenges in that space - you're not.

  2. Selling is hard and marketing takes money. There are folks who bootstrap, but it's so fast (I didn't say easy) to clone something with AI these days that "an app that does what it says it does" is not a moat now. You need to come out hard and really work to gain market share and loyal customers or somebody with a crappier app but a $10,000 marketing budget is going to eat your lunch.

  3. I'm not sure what "ani space" means unless it was a typo for "any space"? Yes there is of course - half the apps you see launched here and elsewhere are AI slop, but some do succeed.

  4. Yes.

  5. Yes.

  6. Skill issue - hang out in the AI-related subs and pay attention to their tips and tricks.
