A polished interface is no longer a differentiator.

AI can help everybody build very polished things very fast.

The key is to stay close to customers and build something that solves a real problem better or differently than what is already out there.

[Christian Elkrog @celkrog]

Hot take: Most people use AI for the wrong part of the process.
LLMs are great at language and structuring messy inputs. For math, logic and hard rules, I use code or specialised models.
I trust the LLM to coordinate the process, not be the process.
Same experience?

@nordestgaardj Kan du anbefale en god træpille trading app?

I saw a video where a "startup expert" adviced not to start a business you love but something you are good at 🤔
I disagree, none of our executives had tried digitalizing boating, but we love boating and saw a problem⛵️ The passion and love keeps us going when things get hard IMO

@jens_gam @thorborg Jeg er af den holdning at "smarte forretningsfyre", som finder på nye måder at løse problemer på, er med til at gøre at verden udvikler sig.

[Christian Elkrog @celkrog]

@thorborg @jens_gam Meget forvirrende og nuanceret diskussion hvor det lader til at alle involverede misforstår hinanden 😆 Men @jens_gam er du mener du småjobs eller bræk på køkkenlågerne er usundt eller sidestiller du det to ting?

I just decided to start using SoMe more at work. Used to not think it was worth, but boy was I wrong!!! 5 minutes in and @elonmusk is offering me 10x on an investment in 2 weeks! I am all in!!! 🤑🤑 #bigbusiness #startup #passiveincome #billionairesclub

@sannbaix3 How are you surviving to turn 4 on the draw with no interaction?

[Christian Elkrog @celkrog]

@PreSeedVentures @Harbaapp Thank you for clarifying the name for anyone interested in #marinamanagement

@martinbjustesen Haha, det er effektivt på mange nivauer! Første "10 second read" fitness blog post jeg har læst :) #getfit

@TheEconomist I remember that episode from "The Good Wife" and it clearly showed that it was illegal. As I recall you cannot discriminate based on race, religion or, as in this case, sexuality. Thank you Diane!

@itsmollypyle @suNordic @PeterDiamandis Is #GSP GPS spelled wrong or the MMA fighter? I hope it is the latter and that he can bring entrepreneurship to a new segment. Otherwise I love the pun abou taking GPS in a new direction!

My browser has 70 tabs open at the moment. But luckily I only watch one at the time :)

“Why go back? Because I’m a racing #sailor; that’s what I do. I love the sea, and I love competition. You don’t give up on life just because you once had a narrow shave from death.”

@skovmand Ud over de nævnte ting i tråden er der vel også nogen som er gravide, syge eller handicappede.

@MsEvaMarianne @thorborg Det var nu også mest i sjov. Selvom det ellers ville have været smukt, hvis man så fik dagpengene udleveret i små skattekister og sendte jobansøgninger afsted som flaskepost. Jeg har en stor kærlighed for havet og havneliv, af samme grund forstår jeg udmærket prioriteterne.

[Christian Elkrog @celkrog]

@MsEvaMarianne @thorborg Det er egentlig ganske smart at ligge sig i en havn, så FOA medlemmerne med en stor yacht nemt kan komme derhen :) Busbilletter er også blevet så dyre, så her har dagpenge modtagere mulighed for at ankomme i robåd, hvis cyklen er til reparation.

[Christian Elkrog @celkrog]

@DanGartenberg @TEDTalks Of course you are right. My point was just that often people oversee the most obvious (but also hard) solution. It is hard to find 2 hours more for sleep so people try to squeeze out a few % on quality.
