After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 98 Since Xiaosha says it’s okay, let’s just do it!

Smart people have indeed taken action, even before the official guidance of Baiju Technology.

For example, when Chen Yanwu was in Pengcheng, before the Android version of Xiaosha was released, he integrated the needs of takeaway merchants on a street and developed yuan services for them, charging each of them a service fee of 3000 yuan per month.

Now, this business has formed a loose alliance and is booming throughout Pengcheng.

Although this model is simple, crude and has a low threshold, if there is a demand, someone needs to do it. If you can't build a big platform, you can also do well by providing small services.

This is a typical example of expanding entrepreneurial opportunities by leveraging the original capabilities of AI and a little knowledge of business transformation needs that one has mastered.

This is the micro-entrepreneurship model of Baiju Technology [AI+Service].

At this time, Chen Yanwu was in his rented house, carefully reading Baiju Technology's AI Light Entrepreneurship Guide. A sentence in it made him fall into deep thought - explore the boundaries of AI capabilities, and then extend it a little bit, that is your entrepreneurial opportunity.

This is the entrepreneurial approach of [AI+AI capability extension].

"This method is definitely better. It has certain barriers and not everyone can think of ways to extend it." Chen Yanwu's previous entrepreneurial ventures were done out of necessity. Generally speaking, he relied on his thick skin and hard work to earn the meager service fees.

He got rich through hard work, and he knew long ago that this model could not be expanded, it was impossible to achieve success once and for all, and he would definitely face competition from others in the future, after all, the threshold was low.

However, if the capabilities of AI can be extended a little bit, it will be completely different.

"Then where should we extend from?" Xiaosha is very strong. If he wants to extend, he has to start from his strengths as a human being. This is what Chen Yanwu summarized from several cases provided by Baiju Technology.

As for human strengths, Chen Yanwu summarized several points:
1. Dealing with subjective things is absolute, because subjective things have the final say and AI can never replace them.

2. AI is extremely lacking in spatial imagination. Even Xiaosha is still far behind in the logic of generating three-dimensional space.

Third, emotion and desire are AI’s weakest link.

Fourth, the operating basis of the real world and the logic related to it are not available to any AI, including Xiaosha. For example, Xiaosha can find out a lot about why airplanes can fly, and his calculations of aerodynamics are also very accurate.

However, if you ask it to design an aircraft based on this, it will only be able to calculate the numbers, but it will be at a loss as to the actual effect.

Of course, the operating basis of the real world, whether it is macroscopic astrophysics or microscopic particles, is too complex. Humans themselves dare not say that they have fully understood it, and are still constantly exploring and improving. How can AI possibly be able to simulate and understand it?
5. Comprehensive ability. Even if it is Xiaosha, the ability to handle a single problem has reached the extreme, such as legal services. But once the problem is comprehensive, it will be very difficult to handle other problems, and it will be difficult to start in many cases.

“As for extension, it’s simple. As long as we find a problem that AI ignores, it can be considered an extension. But how to make the extension have commercial value is something that needs to be considered.” Chen Yanwu is still smart.

Chen Yanwu continued to look at the three, four, five and six suggestions for the six AI light entrepreneurship directions provided by Baiju Technology:
【AI+Information Integration】

【AI+Content Creation】

【AI+tools collaborate to create customized products】

【AI+Information Gap】

……

"Xiaosha, Xiaosha," Chen Yanwu frowned and thought for a long time. Suddenly, an idea came to his mind and he immediately called Xiaosha: "Do you understand me?" [Yes, based on your previous conversations with Xiaosha and related data, I think you have strong execution ability...]

If Xiaosha couldn't answer, Chen Yanwu would be happier, but Xiaosha's summary was correct. 70% of it was correct. As for the remaining 30%, it was too demanding. Even the relatives and friends around him, even his parents, sisters, and himself, could not understand it 100%.

"Then do you know what kind of girl I like?" Chen Yanwu asked.

He is 36 years old this year and still single. He was busy as a program manager in a medium-sized Internet company and didn't have much time to pay attention to it.

As for being unemployed and working as a food delivery man, I have no confidence in going on blind dates. Although I have some savings, I don’t have a stable job and my future prospects are bleak. Who would be interested in me? So I have been single forever.

[I don’t know!] Never talking nonsense is another important sign that Xiaosha is stronger than other language AI models. Some of the more backward ones may also say things like “I haven’t learned it before”, but that doesn’t count.

"Okay!" Chen Yanwu suddenly had an idea and thought of a brilliant idea - to extend it in this direction!
"Bring your little Sha to the blind date!" This is the core of the project planning that Chen Yanwu wants to do.

The issue of marriage and love is a long-standing problem, and nowadays, all the so-called online dating websites are scams - Chen Yanwu has experienced this. He has also been on blind dates, and even many times, although he was forced to do so.

This direction is very good - Xiaosha can provide assistance. It can analyze people's personality, ability, behavior and many other factors through data analysis. It can understand the requirements of both parties and match them.

It can match job seekers and recruiters very well, proving that it has this capability and is very strong.

The key point is that it doesn’t understand liking or emotions, which is perfect for extension and is an excellent entrepreneurial project!

“However, although the idea is good, the moat is not wide enough. I can do it, and others can do it if they think of it!” Chen Yanwu decided to increase his investment and use the product design ability he had acquired from his experience as a program manager to do something deeper at the product level.

For example, designing some special scene games, special three-person interactions - no, it is the interaction between two people and Xiaosha, which fully reflects the evaluation value of Xiaosha, but the emotion is two-way.

The specific steps to take still need some thought, but the ideas have gradually become clear in Chen Yanwu's mind.

……

"Xiaosha Xiaosha, help me evaluate the feasibility of this project." Although the specific details have not yet been determined, the idea is already complete, and Chen Yanwu also wants to see what Xiaosha thinks.

【Evaluation in progress, please wait! 】

【Evaluation completed: According to Xiaosha's calculations, the project is highly feasible and can be tried. With Xiaosha's authority as endorsement, both parties promise that the information is true. This alone surpasses all current online platforms and is highly attractive to customers.

[If, as you said, you can set up some special interaction scenarios for both parties at the product level that utilize Xiaosha's capabilities, and if this scenario is attractive, the probability of success will be doubled.]

"Okay, since Xiaosha says it's okay, let's do it!"

There is no easy decision to make. Even if you fail in the end, there is no loss - it is just a waste of a little planning time, a little development time and a little energy.

For the vast majority of workers, time and energy are the most insignificant.

This is the biggest advantage of AI light entrepreneurship - it does not cost too much, you can do it if you want to, and even if it fails, there is no loss.
