233. How AI changed tech entrepreneurship and investing in 2024 and what’s to come
Manage episode 456130730 series 2974873
Think AI is just about adding chatbots to your business?
Think again.
In 2024, AI has completely transformed who can build tech companies and how they're funded - but there's also dangerous hype that's already landing companies in legal trouble.
We're in what economists call 'The Middle Times of AI' - a messy period where massive opportunity meets massive hype.
Some founders are building million-dollar businesses with lean teams, while others are getting fined by the SEC for false AI claims.
Listen to this episode to learn:
- Why prototypes that once cost $32,000 can now be built for free
- How the SEC is cracking down on fake AI companies
- Why technical co-founders are no longer essential for tech startups
- How to spot real AI opportunities in the middle of the hype
- Why new tech hubs are emerging far from Silicon Valley
Whether you're a founder saving thousands on development, a corporate innovator testing ideas without permission, or an investor avoiding AI washing, this episode will help you navigate the reality of AI in 2024.
Resources mentioned in this episode:
- Tech for Non-Techies episode 155. How generative AI is changing business and the economy
