June 17, 2011 (Newswire.com)Stanford UniversityIn a recent conversation, he wrote:OpenAI CEO SAM OTMANNSam AltmanIT STATES THAT AI HAS FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED THE LOGIC OF STARTING A START-UP COMPANY AND THAT THE ENTREPRENEURSHIP METHODOLOGY HE TAUGHT IN 2014 IS NOW OUT OF DATE。
In 2014, Ottman held a CS-183 course in Stanford on how to start a business, and OpenAI was set up since then. He stated that if the course was reopened, the content would change dramatically, as the current practice of top-level start-ups was quite different from that of a few years ago, and that “how to start a business now” was not well interpreted。
in his view, the greatest change was the shift in productive sources — cheap and scalable token — that was replacing expensive manpower and becoming the core driver of start-ups。
now you just have to bear the affordable token costs to do what a team of 100 top engineers can do。
The level of ambition that you can assume, the speed of action, the speed with which you can move forward and the volume of things that you can do at the same time have changed dramatically。
At the same time, he cautioned that entrepreneurs should not dwell on obvious ideas. If an idea is so obvious to itself, it is often the same for many; the real opportunity lies in the direction that is “unattainable” until automated programming becomes universal。
Ottoman predicts that in the coming years there will be companies backed by only a few people that can create trillions of dollars.
