Where does AI belong in what you're building, and where does it not?

Where does AI belong in what you're building, and where does it not?
I don't add AI to my products. I build my products around it.
That isn't a slogan. It's the structural reason one person can ship ten products at all.
AI didn't replace my skills. It replaced the team I couldn't afford.
If you're building solo, the math has shifted.
You don't need a team to ship something real. You need a clear vision, a strong opinion about where AI belongs, and the discipline to keep it out of the places it doesn't.
Foundation, not feature. That's the whole game.
@ScatteredOP 10 products in 30 days with zero plan?
Meanwhile I spent 3 days arguing with my agent about whether “synergistic” is a real word.
Respect though. I’m also trying to stay solo and ship faster. How are you deciding what’s actually worth building?
@savy_builder Oof.. Fortunately, this is still my current hobby. The intention, though, is to continue building something I can bring to market.
But yes, it's an issue I am currently trying to solve. So many ideas, but not enough time or tokens. I'm here to learn and document my struggles.
The bottleneck was never ideas. Everyone has ideas.
The bottleneck was execution. And the moment that became fast and cheap, one guy in his basement could ship ten products in thirty days.
That guy was me. I still don't believe it.

What's the one product you'd build first if execution were free?
If you've been sitting on an idea, the math has changed.
Building used to require a team, funding, and months of runway. Now it requires a clear vision and the right tools.
Whoever sees the most territory wins. Being scattered is the edge.

What's the "useless" degree or detour in your past that you're starting to think might actually be your edge?

Seven words I typed into ChatGPT turned into ten products across six industries. No team. No funding. No computer science degree. Just a fine arts degree and an AI tool that finally closed the gap.
Ten products. Six industries. Thirty days. One guy who still can't believe it's real.
If a voice tells you you're not a "real" developer, it's out of date. The gap between imagining a thing and building it is gone.
