Well somewhat true. People did predominantly use desktop apps for email before gmail. Gmail was an inflection point for the growth of webapps. But there were and there still are limits to what is possible on the web and so desktop apps are still here. Especially for power users. This is probably the most healthy perspective. AI makes new stuff possible and it surplants some of the existing stuff, but a big chunk of old stuff still has reason to exist. Don't think you can ignore using ai, and don't think you can ignore knowing how to do stuff yourself.
I’m from Brazil. This year I traveled to the US West Coast and to the US East Coast. Nowhere else I could feel a bigger FOMO than in Silicon Valley. It’s not just YC videos. It’s the whole SV atmosphere that causes this feeling. Thank you for sharing that with us from the rest of the world, Michael and Dalton! Let’s ride that wave!! I hope to be a YC founder one day! 💪
02:12 Now is a prime time to leverage AI for new business opportunities. 04:18 Embrace AI adoption in your career and choose forward-thinking workplaces. 06:09 Startups are outperforming large companies in AI skill acquisition. 08:08 Upskill through accessible learning and embrace new technology today. 10:10 Embrace and actively use emerging AI tools for better productivity. 12:03 Capitalize on knowledge in tech; understanding programming remains valuable. 13:58 Technical expertise is crucial for leveraging AI advancements in startup success.
TBH, this video gave me a serious case of FOMO. Over the past year, I've been working on developing LLM-wrapper apps, but I kept running into the same problem-thinking, 'This just isn’t working; LLMs aren’t quite capable enough yet.' But Dalton and Michael talked about seeing impressive results from some YC startups building with AI, which has really piqued my curiosity. Now I can’t help but wonder: what are some of the standout examples among the many AI startups YC has funded over the past two years?
you had a video titled "Why AI Hasn’t Blown Our Minds…Yet" just 2 months back. Could you please give us more insight on what changed in just 2 months to make this video, adjust/change your opinion?
What videos and resources do you recommend reading and watching since we are at ground zero and wanting to learn. I am not in the tech world but want to pivot … what are the best boot camps to learn to take advantage of this opportunity? There’s so much information out there that sometimes one doesn’t know if it’s the best videos to watch.. please advise!
Smart phones, social media even websites were all written off initially. However I have learnt to wait and see these things flourish. Even if some tech does not become big, learning the skills never hurt !!
If I want to develop an AI application, what should I focus on learning? Should I delve into the technical workings of large language models (LLMs), perhaps by watching videos by Andrej Karpathy, or is it sufficient to understand the capabilities of existing AI tools and focus on creating something that meets people’s needs? In other words, how important is it for me to learn the technical details?
I studied Machine learning for my masters. I suggest u concentrate on creating something that meets people's needs. Diving into the technical aspects will take u time and its a rabbit hole that is so deep u wont come out of it. Learn basic technical details such as how models work and in which situations r they best suited, their pros and cons.
@@worldcomingtoanend Thank you so much for sharing your insights! 🙏 I really appreciate your guidance, especially since it feels credible coming from someone with a background in this field.
I'm 16 and I'm doing an AI automation business. Solopreneur right now. The problem I have is that I will probably want to scale, but almost no one has the necessary knowledge and skills. Training is hard. Any advice?
I'm a VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) developer at a small company, I want to start a startup in the comming 5 months and now I'm looking for co-founders, my previous startup (in generative AI space) got accepted into Microsoft for founders hub, if you are a technical, innovative or market person reply me here to discuss more. 😊
Yeah, I agree, but as someone in the middle of it building a new product, working through bugs and customer issues, the occasional message of reaffirmation is helpful to motivate powering though the muck of building a new company even if there's no new information in the video
Okay, Re: Open-Source learning resources mentioned around 8:30 - It would be nice to get a list of the top recommended resources for us interested in doing just that. Any tips?
6:00 Being surrounded by the right team and people is integral When I was tech lead for a govt innovation team I made a “gpt3 wrapper” pre ChatGPT and it got some good feedback but wasn’t at all taken on 🙂↔️🙂↔️🙂↔️ A lot of the time X idea could be amazing but due to your surroundings they don’t see the vision, hence why SF and YC are quite integral for increasing your chances of success
Thanks for your videos. I completely agree. I work on llm agents for internal apis in a traditional company and the first demo after few months kept some coworkers speechless. I completely can see how this will affect the future. I can see myself starting a company, but I don't see a viable business idea.
You cherrypicking successful trends from the past. I am not saying that AI is a fad; it's certainly not, and it is the most profound direction of development now. But to be fair to the listeners, you should also mention fad technologies (which were many) that had the same groundbreaking vibe but ended up in a trashcan of history. That's how you can distinguish worthy and not worthy directions instead of jumping on any hype happening right now.
@AmirulHamizan NFTs, most of cryptocurrencies, lot's of battery tech that have not passed real world tests, hundreds and hundreds of google projects that were closed, 95% of startups...
@@AmirulHamizan IoT, VR, driverless cars, crypto, nft, ai every decade or so is hyped up like crazy them fails to live up to its earth shattering expectations. That dos not mean LLMs useless, they are a great tool but nothing more, we need to take them for what they are and not what all the hype peddlers with a financial interest in their success continue to sell us on its so called certain future.
@@AmirulHamizanVR, had plenty of early adopters, but it has been 10 years and we’re still in the early adopter phase (saying as the proud sequential owner of every Quest headset released)
NINETY seconds in and I feel like I’m being pitched an AI product. Leveraging FOMO and all as well. At this point YC’s channel is just part of their funnel, not even meant to educate anymore.
Well I can understand why you would make that argument, but I am genuinely curious let say it's a part of their funnel, then doesn't that mean they want more people to have this skill so that they can invest more. Now if a big VC is betting that more of such companies will be valuable, don't you think we should try to build that skill too?
This is flawed argument. How does one contradict the other? Why is it so hard to believe that 'helping their marketing funnel' and 'educating people' can have major overlap? The fact that they have personal interest in promoting AI does not mean that promoting AI is bad
The thing about YC is that it's not about innovation or creation but who it fundamentally helps out more. It's an incubator for Wallstreet and investment firms to strategically buy out the start-up or die. YC is a great company don't get me wrong, its core values are flawed and ethically wrong in terms of controlling who it helps. My question is, why isn't YC a PBC if it's a sound business model ?
The rate of progress makes determining how to invest your time very challenging. If AGI is indeed 1-5 years out, how should engineers and entrepreneurs be spending their time? Piggybacking on the AI wave seems like it's just going to expedite the inevitable automation of :allthethings:, which I'm not sure yet is a good thing.
What’s regarded as a technical cofounder? Should they be knowledgeable as a product manager or systems architect or should they have a deep understanding of coding and building AI models? Especially true for coders that are being replaced by AI writing robust code.
Great video... couldn't agree more. Looking back and I'm already glad to have pivoted my work toward AI animation early on... mid '2022. Rather that sticking still with my 10 year old studio. Now have the #1-#2 website on the subject of AI Animation. A decent audience and been able to pivot full time to the subject and dev pursuits. It's lead to AI Consulting projects for some cool project names, plus I've rolled out a few courses... not the end goal.. but it keeps the lights on and helps fund the solo dev projects with those $M goals. Various prototypes for AI use cases always bubbling along.. (I really... REALLY need to get at least one of those released soon). Either way the dev time on these prototypes lead to a broad understanding of AWS computing, React, APIs etc... Which I think, combined with the focus on a specific area (professional AI animation) will remain useful.
I am B Pharm graduate and i want to Change career but i always make decisions in IT sector then suggest is it good or should go in other careers If it's good then what's and where should I start in IT sector like full stack developer,app development, cloud computing, cybersecurity, etc Please show me path whatever is
Dalton & Michael, I am applying to YC winter batch, my startup falls in category of both B2B SaaS and Hard tech? Is there any guidance on which category to choose?
I have 10 year exp in AR/VR game industry, can i learn AI now ? I want to start AI product company but i have no knowledge in AI, not sure if it makes sense to be the AI engineer in this case
I believe we're at the mainframe stage for AI, and we'll get today's models or better running on local consumer hardware within 10ish years. Then we'll get ASI in the mainframe, and then some years after that, ASI will be on local consumer hardware. It's going to be wild.
Would love to hear from Y combinator how folks can found companies that won’t get steamrolled by OpenAI. If they’re building AGI, how can you make something and not get steamrolled?
I don't have to imaging using the first web browsers. I had already been using the internet for years when they came around. It's an apt comparison, though.
We will have true democracy because no single person will hold and be able to print a central currency. Currency will be defined by value of a company or person or group of persons working toward the same goal and capitalizing on them.
The real breakthroughs in AI applications may not come from programmers, but from people in various industries who are constantly watching AI's progress and looking for ways to apply it in their fields. By teaming up with developers to create software and launch companies, these domain experts can lead the way. In fact, as AI evolves, programming itself may become obsolete, empowering anyone to build their own software. The next wave of successful founders will likely be industry experts who are proactive about using AI in their domains, rather than programmers.
wow those improving models are making life so much better. poverty, hunger, misinformation, crime, wars, homelessness - it's all gone!!! oh wait - it's just marketers and scammers that benefit...
There's a gap between knowing that mobile will be a huge thing and developing Waze, Uber, or Angry Birds. I know LLM's are improving, and Meta will probably release a free an omni voice-to-voice model like GPT-4o, but it's still difficult to know how to leverage the new technology. It's more complicated than buying a GPU and mining bitcoin.
lol the comments make me laugh. I’ve watched numerous videos of Michael and Dalton cooling the fire on AI. This is one (if not the first) time that I’ve really heard them push its time to jump on the AI train. Good to see them finally shift their position and give us the heads up.
I just left everything including a company i bootstrapped to 2M $ ARR a month with profits(interior design executors), to hands of my father, and moved to chennai yesterday to found my AI company , we are building a AI dental crm first
Can someone please answer what's the best place to learn about all this, back when i was in school people followed AndrewNG like a bible. Please suggest where i can build my technical expertise ?
This is how this exactly works : let's hype everything to the limit for the incoming founders to YC and also next stage (Seed) investors. Absolutely no value in this video. Might be just two dudes sitting in a bar and yapping around.
You guys are laughing a bit too much. Did someone lace your juice with shroomz 😂. Good info though. I’m in Kenya. I have a couple of ideas I wanna build but I’m having difficulty raising 100 dollars to just pay for tokens. Any wellwisher wanna give me a shot?
I think this is too rosy, you forgot to mention the pace at which things are moving in this sector. Within a year whatever you learnt is phased out by some Zero-shot LLM model, which is phased out in another year by some AI Agentic system. Unless you're really young, a super quick learner or you don't have any ego working for folks way younger than you, be careful 😂😂
Meh, AI has some nice use-cases that we've been leveraging for over a decade, like Google Vision. It's not a 10T upgrade though. LLMs aren't really that great, and there's no goldmine here, only people selling shovels.
I feel that GenAI is much more fundamental from a CPA perspective. Yet, at the same time, accessible. It's doing to text what spreadsheets did to numbers. Before VisiCalc, numbers were static entities requiring specialist knowledge to manipulate. Spreadsheets transformed them into dynamic, manipulable tools that reshaped how businesses operate. Similarly, GenAI is turning text from fixed content into fluid, programmable material that anyone can shape and analyze. This isn't just another tech wave - it's a fundamental shift in how humans interact with information itself.
I think there actually is hype about AI, but in different areas, statements like: all software developers will be replaced by AI, or AI will take over humans in near future. Also, if a person has no innovative business idea and they just want to ride the AI wave to become a billionaire is an illusion. It is quite different from phenomena like Bitcoin, which I could just buy and wait. That was my penny + another penny! 😆
Cannot take seriously tech people who keep repeating iPhone IPhone like 19 yo. Get over it. First get over the hype of the 'iPhone moment' and keep your propaganda to yourself.
@@coreymckay5202 you do not pay attention to a lot of videos that is why it is not important. Every bit is important in marketing, it may not be so in technology. A bunch of jokers on TH-cam have crashed and threatened Intel. Would you believe it? Tech people are very naive and idiots outside of their world.

Too true. I used to think air fryers were all hype. When I think of the missed years I could have been eating crispy nuggets!

Well somewhat true. People did predominantly use desktop apps for email before gmail. Gmail was an inflection point for the growth of webapps. But there were and there still are limits to what is possible on the web and so desktop apps are still here. Especially for power users. This is probably the most healthy perspective.

Nothing's changed.. they're promoting their portfolio companies and the vertical as a whole. Not very well, I must add..
o1 models and openai getting even more money from the latest venture round

I am working on an start-up rexitaxi. A new way to ride.
To answer your question, AI is improving stepwise in shorter periods; this can continue with more use and adoption. Plus, we need energy to run. 😮
Interesting
I feel that GenAI is much more fundamental from a CPA perspective. Yet, at the same time, accessible. It's doing to text what spreadsheets did to numbers. Before VisiCalc, numbers were static entities requiring specialist knowledge to manipulate. Spreadsheets transformed them into dynamic, manipulable tools that reshaped how businesses operate. Similarly, GenAI is turning text from fixed content into fluid, programmable material that anyone can shape and analyze. This isn't just another tech wave - it's a fundamental shift in how humans interact with information itself.
Good insight. As a fellow CPA, I wholeheartedly agree
I love these two fucking guys, keep the vids comin bitches
At 8:28 are you perhaps referring to my TH-cam video of how transformers work?
Pivoting now
should not have said bitcoin in the same breath...
I think there actually is hype about AI, but in different areas, statements like: all software developers will be replaced by AI, or AI will take over humans in near future.
Also, if a person has no innovative business idea and they just want to ride the AI wave to become a billionaire is an illusion. It is quite different from phenomena like Bitcoin, which I could just buy and wait. That was my penny + another penny! 😆
Drop the relevant yt channels to learn from in the comments please , thanks!
Cannot take seriously tech people who keep repeating iPhone IPhone like 19 yo. Get over it. First get over the hype of the 'iPhone moment' and keep your propaganda to yourself.
iPhone is irrelevant: he means "first mainstream handheld wireless touch enabled multimedia device"
@@coreymckay5202 you do not pay attention to a lot of videos that is why it is not important. Every bit is important in marketing, it may not be so in technology. A bunch of jokers on TH-cam have crashed and threatened Intel. Would you believe it? Tech people are very naive and idiots outside of their world.
Bruh ai winter is coming
