claude vs chatgpt as primary AI?

last night both companies made this choice very easy :)

wasn’t daniel vassallo’s (who basically coined the term „portfolio of small bets”) project recently acquired?

yup! lots of details to figure out, but the goal is a click through experience with smart defaults.

my bet is that in less than a decade Apple will make “AI box” mainstream 😃

business idea: openclaw in every home.

pre-configured, shipped on mac minis, ready to go

that could be signs of a burnout, going against intuition and not setting goals might actually be better :)

mac mini is hype, but some reasons:
- easier access to actual desktop, browser etc
- option to run local llms (with more ram)
- it’s cute, feels like a pet

all points above arguable ofc, but mac mini is just a great encapsulation of high quality hardware to run your second brain on

i just set up mine this weekend and my mind is blown

so much to teach it already 😅

so do you have your openclaw yet?

definitely not something where I sell my own time :) probably manufacturing something? I like systems.

ZIRP -> more VC capital -> more companies -> more jobs, regardless of AI

companies don’t start by themselves :)

Conductor is the new Cursor

very much so, especially in the realm of Clawd and similar

why not using Claude Code on your phone?

most of it is gut feeling coming from experience, backed by data (eg revenue/retention by cohort etc)

RemoveBG API - Best AI Background Removal API for Developers High accuracy, real-time, and scalable background removal API for developers, e-commerce, and SaaS. Get started with our affordable AI-powered solution.

this is my new asset: removebgapi.com
and here is Tam's X, give him a follow! x.com/tamnvvn

why did I decide to go ahead with this acquisition?
- my thesis is that APIs are a great lifestyle business in the AI era
- Tam's project is polished and well made, and has good initial traction
- my experience with Supadata gives me confidence and ideas to grow another API

onwards and upwards 😎

my first acquisition 🎉

while strategizing on my API portfolio, i stumbled upon Tam's project on TrustMRR by @marclou.bsky.social

two days (and one failed escrow) later, i'm the new owner of RemoveBGAPI .com 🙌

minus the hot chick 🥲

but only 40 impressions? ain’t nobody gonna build a business on that :)

you can eg buy OpenAI credits in advance :)

ads, annual subscriptions, prepay services

you can see tool invocation counts on Smithery

I’m doing this solo because working with others adds levels of complexity I don’t want to deal with day to day. Hiring part time contractors is enough headache already :)

if it hurts, means it’s real 😘

congrats, you were promoted from code writer to code reviewer 🌟

I have 10 monitors, 2 status pages and custom domains for free :)

but you're talking to a non-paying customer so I might not be your target (yet)

I actually signed up a few months ago! It’s a slick product, but:
1. BetterUptime free plan has all the things I need, OpenStatus doesn’t
2. Historical data 😭

I found that as a dev myself I find it very easy to find, talk and sell to devs
