My favorite panel question today: "As the foundational models become more capable and reliable, do you think the value added on top of foundation models with agent-based workflows will diminish or not?" As builders, we always strive to use better tools to create better products and enable a better future. That's why we are so excited about Generative AI and new models. But as startup founders, we need to figure out how to dominate a specific and niche market.

How far away do you think we are from AGI? Will AI models replace software? How did we get to this moment, is it all hype? What AI opportunities are people not talking about right now, that are genuinely exciting? How should startup founders navigate the future? What is Australia's role in all of this? These are just some of the questions I'm thinking about throwing at Anton van den Hengel next week when we jump on stage for _SOUTHSTART. There are few better people in Australia to hear from on the topic of AI than Anton, so make time to listen in. It's going to be packed full of info. What else should I ask him? Let me know below! If you can't make it I'll pass his answer onto you. Also, if you'd like to catch up while I'm in town and chat about your startup or about AI, drop me a comment below and I'll get in touch.

Is the AI market a big bubble set for bursting? And will jumping on the bandwagon, contribute to the burst? This a great video by Sky News and worth a watch, exploring the potential of the AI market being a bubble waiting to pop. It doesn’t matter which camp you sit in when it comes to the AI debate, it won’t take away the fact that AI is here to stay. But what puts the market at risk of becoming a burstable bubble, is companies building AI products for the sake of building AI products. We at Loopin made this mistake, getting caught in the hype of it all, and deviating off track to a degree, early last year. But what changed our thinking, was going back to our core mission and the problem that we solve, looking at AI as not something that we need to build and be part of, but instead, invest in how it makes us better at solving the problems we originally set out to solve for our customers. Loopin aims to understand how people are at work and give them what they want when they need it, across a wide range of people areas. This has and always will be, what we look to achieve. Where AI comes in for us, is helping our customers and users better understand sentiment data, provide digital coaching, give faster access to learning and training materials, personalise the development journey, and give quicker access to information from across a company. This can be used to improve well-being, boost engagement, drive high performance and increase operational efficiencies. Core problems that have been, and will always be there. In my eyes, what puts the market at risk, is too many companies building and deploying AI products for the sake of it and just trying to be part of the 'hype'. What will make the market stronger, is companies and startups sticking to solving their true problems, and augmenting themselves, using an AI application layer to solution for the problems they solve, even more effectively. What are your thoughts? Boom or bust? https://lnkd.in/eEFPBxdt #ai #tech #bubble #people

Despite all these AI tools, bootstrapping is still super hard & slow It takes sometimes 3-6+ months to find early traction.. And even more to start making decent money..😅 Would you rather go all-in on viral traction OR adopt a "slow-but-consistent growth" path?
