Topics
Immad Akhund: 我认为太空科技和国防科技是两个很有前景的领域。太空科技领域发展迅速,成本降低,机会众多。在月球上建立核电站是一个很有创意的想法,可以为太空探索提供能源和资源。国防科技领域也充满机会,尤其是在自主武器系统方面。全球地缘政治局势动荡,各国都在加强国防建设,为国防科技公司提供了巨大的市场。自主化是国防科技领域的一个重要趋势,可以开发各种自主武器系统。太空战争将成为未来战争的重要组成部分,需要开发相应的防御技术。在太空中放置广告牌是一个有趣的想法,虽然可能不是一个十亿美元的创意。在太空中放置纪念品(例如骨灰)是一个很有创意的想法。人工智能即服务是一个很有前景的领域,可以开发各种专业领域的人工智能代理。开发人工智能辅导老师是一个很有前景的领域,可以针对特定考试或学科进行个性化辅导。我寻找AI创业机会的方法是自上而下和自下而上相结合的。开发一个能够整合公司内部所有信息的AI虚拟CEO是一个很有前景的想法。选择你真正感兴趣的领域进行创业,这样才能保持动力和热情。在开发产品之前,需要对市场进行充分调研,并思考产品的未来发展方向。Mercury的成功在于满足了创始人对快速便捷银行服务的迫切需求。在危机期间,Mercury 通过开发新的产品来增强客户的信任感。应该勇于尝试高风险高回报的投资,全力以赴。不要墨守成规,要根据自己的想法构建工作和生活。人们可以通过X(推特)联系我,我可以为创业者提供帮助。 Shaan Puri: 好的商业创意是有需求的,可能存在竞争,但仍有发展空间;伟大的商业创意则需要满足三个条件:看起来像坏主意、存在拐点、让所有人望而却步。伟大的创意往往最初听起来像个坏主意,但实际上是个好主意(彼得·蒂尔测试)。伟大的创意往往伴随着某个拐点,例如太空探索成本的降低或人工智能技术的进步。伟大的创意往往让大多数人望而却步,因为竞争少,市场空间大。在危机时刻,保持平常心,专注于擅长的事情,才能更好地应对挑战。全力以赴是一种技能,需要不断练习和积累经验。美元贬值是普遍存在的金融问题,但人们往往习以为常。我选择与朋友一起工作,即使这可能会带来一些风险。
