Another YC pivot to ai from yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38516795

Nothing wrong with pivoting. Or maybe i'm misreading you and the parent's "tone".

  • Agree with nothing wrong about pivoting, mostly an anecdotal point wondering if there is going to be a trend of this for YC companies.

    I do wonder if non-ai talent pivoting to AI is wise or defendable. Do you want to use a service where the creators don't really understand the tech and are not much more than a wrapper around an API? Is that really a defensible posture in a competitive market?

    We will see. I'm sure some will hire talent and have the data to do something special.
