A risk of AI as a product is that the foundational model exceeds your functionality. What if OpenAI can replace your entire app with a prompt? Differentiation strategies: proprietary data, custom integrations, focus on a vertical, brand building. @robwalling.com @microconf.com #microconf #ai

Great business communicators should be judged by results, not feelings. Only a closed feedback loop can ensure that both sides convey the correct information. Repeat what you hear; ask what they heard.

Look at how many folks have suddenly become experts in market futures. If these folks could predict the market, they would have done it before last week. Today is not the day to take up a new hobby day trading, hedging currency risk, or dabbling in options. #investing

In business, you can see challenging events as scars or skills. A customer angrily complains about a bug. Is that a scar, or are you building skills? A promising ad campaign burns through $10k without results. Scar? Or the price of a new skill? Sometimes you make reality through your reaction.

Paying dividends is like distilling water. The water condensing on the apparatus's cool side isn’t manifesting from the ether – it transfers from the boiling vessel. Investors focused on dividend returns for income are confused. Selling stock and receiving dividends reduce portfolio value.

An under-appreciated benefit of attending a mega-social conference like @microconf.com is that I don’t read the news. I don’t miss it either; spending time with friends cures doom-scrolling. #microconf

Years ago, I attended a recruiting party hosted by Google in San Francisco. The venue was filled with guests except in one corner, where the Googlers stood in a circle chatting with each other. I’m attending @microconf.com this weekend, where I will talk to strangers. This is the whole point!😆
