From a non-techinical perspective, Vibe coding is just a massive tradeoff. Time and Cost. I understand that the LLM no matter how advanced, will still struggle to forumlate an app end to end with all of its bells and whistles. The idea has always been that your intervention is how the app develops, and incomplete plans might be more of a protection from the AI to overtake your vision with a flawed interpretation of your idea. A few years ago, I had to pay a team of 4 to do an MVP that was about 30% as good as the same app vibe coded through three weeks. As a founder, I am 100% ok with the tradeoff, because I could go on to burn cash on actual code (as a non techinical founder) but would much rather ship fast, half baked products and iterate as I go. Yes, even if the cost is in tokens or correcting the agent over and over. This tradeoff is perfectly reasonable in my opinion.
What is the purpose of something like this? I always thought that the ultimate purpose of AI social media would be for human entertainment, or AI learning... I woul totally snoop into AI social media if there were interesting things happening often, like discussing polical views or weighing in controversial topics.
Wrapper apps are basically dropshipping from back in the day. I am sure the real profit is in the right problems that users are willing to pay for. AI portraits for example is a very simple solution that is a wrapper with an image generator on top. Still pulling in big bucks every day.
A popular way of gaining some traction in the SaaS world is to own a high intent keyword and then spreading from there. Social Networks must work similarly with owning one specific audience. Think super niche, like a kitchen appliance review community or something like that. If you can own a community you can own another. Marketing is basically like shouting into the void because new users will feel compelled by existing users but if there are none, the value prop of the app is weaker.
This, but I'd go even further. Wny not test run it by developing a hyper-local market first? You could make QR codes for neighborhoods and paste them up on telephone poles. Have a photo element to encourage people to post pictures of themselves there, or something they're seeing. Encourage people to make their own QR codes as well. Userland QR codes for local bands and pubs, etc. Not just products. Once the ball gets rolling in one town, who knows?
From a non-technical user... I used Chat and Claude to tailor my resumes depending on the position and what not. I completely agree with your take on building "experiences" that you can recycle depending on the job. What I had personally found, is that it takes a while to dive through all my "experiences" and recall everything I did in specific jobs. I ended up going on voice mode and having a natural convo with the AI and have it ask me questions like a psychologist. We were able to extract a ton of experiences without the fatigue of having to figure that part out. I wonder if that would ever hit your users because this was my main barrier to even try free tools that did this.
That is an excellent idea! I had experimented with chat based approaches but that was not very successful. Would you mind sharing your approach for the voice mode? I would love to understand it better!
I honestly worked out a big converation about indrustries that I wanted to explore and landed on a prompt like... you are my career coach... ask me any relevant questions that would help you clearly understand my strenghths, skills and experiences so we can use the STAR method later when building a resume for x industry. The chat was honestly pretty good at asking those questions once it had my resume. "Have you ever had to fire someone? Why?"- This led to uncovering a time when the team had to go and ended up in a prety good experience: "Built a team of X people from stratch that led to X metric increasing etc. " This was gold for me.
Looks nice! I will definitely give it a shot.
A feature that would go along way... be able to change
the mouse pointer type or to smoothen the cursor's movement. Most screen recorders that bank of explainer videos have this feature because it makes the video look that much more professional.
We don't have cursor movement access in the browser for the shared screens; it needs an extension for this to work. do you think it worth making an extension for this tool?
I do think its worth it but it might defeat the simplicity of your idea! Perhap youd find a way to bypass the smoothing of the cursor with a an optional overlap animation? Quite an intersting problem to resolve nonetheless
Think that Meta changed it's name when the Metaverse was the hottest thing in the block. I hindsight not even billions of dollars worth of research can really anticipate what a specific technology might end up doing or where it will drive the most value. Crypto, VR, AI, all have the same investing cycles.
Cheap Apple products is a long term net negative. Apple's justification for their price on high ticket items is not their technical edge, is the "cool people have it so might as well pay a premium for it". Lululemon did something similar to appeal to the masses and it backfired a few years after, opening the door for competitors that had nothing on them a few years back.
Love the social feeling of UX. I screen through 100s of emails every day and if you are interested in some pointers for potential uses I would die for on our current corporate set-up...
Visual ques that are extracted from the email context
-Due in 3 days >> has a timer with a 3 day countdown
-Urgent- action immedaitely >> adds an urgency mark to the email
Emails that can get diarized, then brought back up automatically
-Follow up when client is back form their trip >> sorts email into folder, but
brings it back up when the date comes
Assign emails like tasks
-X action need to be done by another person but you need to provide oversight >> tag the team or person and get notified when actioned or not actioned
